Why and for how long will you keep feeding
Why and for how long will you keep feeding
This tall, this overgrown body of yours?
You probably forgot there is Doomsday,
For you steep yourself in worldly pleasures.
Toil, earn, eat, and give others your wages;
Put your soul in the hands of the sages.
A single visit into the heart is
Better than a hundred pilgrimages.
He who sells the public his lies and shame
Has no wisdom; he is fit for bedlam.
Let him turn himself into a Moslem
If he commands any magic powers.
