Secret Of Life
Whenever relatives committed injustice
I learned how to tolerate
Whenever friends became disloyal
I understood loyalty
Whenever I saw the rivals, rivalry
I gained the quality to bear
Whenever the world hit
Nature taught me to smile
Whenever love turned to hatred
Life experienced broken and repaired
Whenever I extracted the essence from that,
My heart and mind got patience and gratitude
And then I became aware of this;
"Then, which of the favours of your Lord you will deny?"
It also defined the meaning of point clearly
I stayed alive and survived.
