LIFE IS A GIFT - POEM BY LALLA



Life is given.
Nothing is earned,
so learn to serve others,
not your own desire and greed
and ego. They steal your energies,
whereas devotion builds your strength
and protects the intelligent flame
that leads to the truth within.

- Lalla
14th Century North Indian mystic


From Naked Song
Versions by Coleman Barks
