You are in the world
Where things come to be
- Yet you seek to be at rest!
Drink the foul things first.
After, drink the pure.
...
All things in this world are foul.
Where things come to be:
Where things cease to be:
This no place to hunt for truth.
Live detached from self
Or be tricked to death -
Mere chance will always fail you.
Your lovers are here,
In the come-to-be -
You can't put trust in a slave!
Hard to leave a friend.
Harder to be left.
Impossible, all alone.
Know what should be done.
Don't do it? Coward!
What can you do with weapons?
)
Act without knowing.
Brave but without arms.
Still, you can acquire weapons...
)
Know what should be done.
Do it and bravely.
Free yourself from fear of death.
Each element tends
Back to its own kind -
Soon you will dance with angels
Impulse and desire
Move beings to grow -
Can it be you don't exist?
Understanding and
Satisfaction and
No fear - what else can you want -
Lovers will torment.
Drugs reduce control.
Beware! Dread them and flee them.
Where did you come from?
You are held heavy
And have forgotten your name.
Always, grief and loss...
Bonds of love are torn.
Do you feign folly, blindness?
Small experience
Sheds light upon all.
One nature and one essence.
Inform yourself for
your journey, or stay
forever on the first step.
Come, test the world and
Make trial of it, Oh
You Illustrious Stranger!
Free from darkness, see
The forms you thought you
Had forgotten (all of them -)
Let your intellect
teach you: your body
is a transitory guide.
