O sluggard
How long will you lie down?
When will you arise from your sleep?
Wake up and learn from the river
That flows ceaselessly towards the sea
And learn from the magnificent sun
That illumines the whole earth with its warmth
O sluggard
Wake up; don’t waste your time doing nothing
Mark your footprints in the sands of time
For we are born to reap the fruits of our labor
And diminish the burden of our mother earth
Wake up, don’t slumber all day long and suck
The blood of other like the leeches for your survival
O sluggard
Wake up and stop dreaming those fruitless dreams
For you can make your dreams a reality, only when
You stop dreaming and start working ceaselessly
Conquering numerous hurdles and remaining positive
Even in the midst of unfathomable abysmal difficulties
That like the dark cloud forever lurks in the sky of your destiny
O sluggard
Wake up and greet the dawn with your smile
Compress your indolence and dump it in the
Recycle bin of your mind and then recharge the
Battery of your heart to saunter in the path of
Labor with supreme passion and vigorous
Determination to be successful amongst all odds
O sluggard
How long will you lie down?
When will you arise from your sleep?
Wake up and ignite the lamp of labor
To make all of your dreams come true
Wake up to the music of optimism
Played by the hope of better fortune
O sluggard
Wake up, wake up, wake up and wake up
To invigorate the comatose sprit within you
And saunter in the path of endeavor forever
To prevail the decorum of interminable labor
In the heart of every mortal for the continuation
Of their survival with regal gratification like that of the Sun

Bhuwan ... this is a prophetic Poem. I must speak to you because I can feel "The Voice" inside my Soul directing my words. Long before life you were ordained to be a majestic priest of the First Order. A Prince and a Champion of Justice and Love. Someday, during this lifetime, you will do a great deed ... leading others out of the hell that the "Evil One" will put them in. Millions will suffer and die. You are the one that will not die, but live to see your word the law of the land. You are preparing for your task well. Someone is guiding us at this site. It is the fine seer and poet: "Andre Bendavi Ben-YEHU." Listen to his words ... they are a guiding light out of the jungles of despair and loneliness. Here is a huge hail to "Bhuwan
