Analysis of When The Soul Rises
While the soul tinges with divine glow
Words like flower bloom and flow
And the heart like crystal clean
Turns into a divine shrine
In that temple we see our self
The mirage of Maya accepts its knell .
This temporal vacation has its promise ,
And God wishes to fulfill , if we not miss ,
His benediction , that He upon us showers ,
Since our birth , through , seconds and hours .
The alchemy and the alloy ,-of blackest mind ,
Puts traps , and spreads net ,-of mischievous ruins ,
They , drag the body to the nadir of sinful games ,
With created moral , and self conceited name and fames !
