Merry-go-round of life is ordained,

As we have the constant alternation

Of day and night, and in both cases

The heavens play the defining part.

As for the men, they have no power

To do anything in reference to both,

Death and life--such is the causality

Of all living beings. Why is this so?

Just because some things are under

Their control but some of them not.

Some specially regard the heavens

As their Lord on High and therefore

Love them distantly as really they are,

But how much more should they love

That one which stands out nearby

As their direct superior, let's ponder it!

Some specially regard their supervisors

As supreme to themselves and will give

Their lives to die for them--how much more

Should they do so for that one

Which is their Lord on the Greatly High!
