Awake Arise Act…

Sarala inspires us for good deeds, in this poem of hope. A Different Truths exclusive.

We learn from our parents and teachers
The good work which is to be completed on time if not time may run out!
They help us discipline our lives as much as they can
Then it’s up to us to follow
Their advice and footsteps
As we grow, we have our own mind to think and act
But caution is to be exercised not to stumble and fall
We have certain commitments towards our brethren who are struggling for survival
Lift them up with your love and care helping them to stand on firm footing!
We have commitments towards our motherland
To save her from outside forces!
We have duties to perform
In this world apart from our own comforts!
Lend a helping hand to
Whoever is weak and in need
It’s a blessing from above!
Teach poor children who can’t afford school fees
But you can and you have the power to do it!
Don’t delay
Time doesn’t stop
Be quick to listen to the cry of the poor before it’s too late!
Awake Arise Act
Let this be our motto!
