When clouds of gloom darken the life,
Not a ray of hope shines;
When all attempts come to a naught,
All happiness declines;
When friends become enemies and
Blessings turn into curse;
When dreams have but horror in them
And life could not be worse;
It's then that the inner voice says:
"Rise, why be despondent?
Why lament fate? Why don't you for
Your own follies repent?
If you are truly repentant
And then seek my blessing,
It won't be denied but will be
Yours just for the asking".
