DO REMEMBER!

DO REMEMBER!

Do remember, the dark and dense clouds of Inconvenience
Can’t forever eclipse the shining Sun of eternal Happiness!
The temporary and boisterous Tides of bitter Adversity,
Are never enduring, for they are only the Agents of Fragility!

Do remember, the fierce and fleeting Tempests of  life
Can neither forever batter the serene shores of life,
Nor they can elude Victory from your sorrow-soaked life
Nor they can snatch your last laugh in its stiff strife!

Do remember, the Vice can’t always reign till the very end,
One has to pay with due interests for the hoards by foul means gained!
The Just and the Righteous can’t be gagged under force forever,
For, when sets in the Spring of Good-luck, flees the Cold-luck's shiver!

Do remember, Truth always triumphs the long and tough Marathon of life,
Time blunts timely the short-lived and useless sharpness of Untruth Knife!
Honest sweats are ever blessed and accompanied by the lasting sweet Smiles,
The ecstasy of walking on foot excels the joy of flying by Jets a million miles!

Do remember, my dear, Faith conquers the most inaccessible mountain,
Industry, under all circumstances,  never  ends in smoke, nor goes in vain!
If you can remember all these infallible harsh Realities of life without fail,
The Celestial Bliss is yours; and the Heaven awaits to hug you and hail!
