TRUTH
* (An Eternal Message From Kerbala)*
* No brutal force 'gainst truth can work*
* Truth will conquer, will not shirk.*
* 'Tis the greatest dike, to hold back sin*
* The silencer, of the mundane din.*
* The spiritual health, it will restore*
* For moral wounds; 'tis a surest sure.*
* Truth will strengthen sickly souls*
* Plug, in the conscience, gaping holes.*
* Truth, is not an elusive ghost*
* 'Tis, to the righteous, a constant host.*
* Truth, in its exalted mood*
* Is clearest mind's amplitude.*
* "Infinite" is there in every man*
* Immortalise "finite" it can.*
* Truth, doesn't perish at death*
* It does outlive the human breath.*
* Redeemed, through truth, all can be*
* XYZ and you and me.*
* Truth, being infinitely great*
* Both kings and beggars, upon it wait.*
* Truth, individuals and Nations, makes*
* An infinite joy in the task it takes*
* Glows the universe, with its beams*
* Sun and moon, are truth it seems.*
* if the human perception's doors are clean*
* In every beauty truth is seen*
* Truth is proud, to know so much*
* Its every move has wisdom's touch.*
