YOU'RE MY HOPE AND LOVE.
YOU'RE MY HOPE AND LOVE.
A light has shone inside my heart.
I've loved it much and knelt to it
as it has given me a sight
I love to see that it exists.
It makes me think about the source
and feel so glad it's from the Lord.
His worth is high in my poor core
as He's become my only hope.
I've found Jesus in daily life
in those who suffer and keep quiet.
Despite all that they show their smile
lest those they love will be disturbed.
He's changed the earth's old attire
and dressed it with what is...

YOUR WORD CAN BE MY GUIDE.
YOUR WORD CAN BE MY GUIDE.
I am not writing just to gain
the honour that l have the brain
that can indite some rhythmic lines
that you will like and praise my name.
I know you have the head that thinks.
You go along the way l pass.
It's full of hardships and complaints.
Just look at your most recent lines.
I like to join your aims with mine
and read a word from your smart mind.
You are supposed to have some thoughts.
I will be pleased if lots are wise.
I don't compete with you to chant ...

DOES GOD SEND TO ETERNAL FIRE?
DOES GOD SEND TO ETERNAL FIRE?
That who loves will get so feeble
though he is a mighty giant.
Those he loves might be mere weaklings.
They're for him the strongest power.
Mothers never hurt their babies
even if they cause them torments.
They endure their treatment gladly,
and they can't disturb their rapture.
Christ, Who is sublime perfection,
came to sacrifice His passion
to confer on little infants
greatest joy to heal their torture.
He endured their spite and hatred
and did not request...

HELP TO BE HELPED!
HELP TO BE HELPED!
People are opposed to people.
Don't they perceive their own failure?
All of them are poorest creatures.
Each can see how much he suffers.
They advance from snags to harder
frightened by their horried voyage
weeping and expecting others
are successful, but are liars.
Help your brother; he's in trouble,
but you feel just what you go through.
Sympathize, and give him rescue.
All of us have just one Father.
Don't await his loss with laughter
or create a snare to trap him.
It's enough...

PEOPLE OF LITTLE CARE
PEOPLE OF LITTLE CARE
The truth of life asks man to strain
to grasp its words which are too blurred.
Though man is prompt to waste his time,
he gives it just a little while.
Where are the clouds that passed the sky
in previous years and left no marks?
Did they deserve to photograph
and keep their shapes in weeping eyes?
Are people passing just like them
at times they're tinted by the sun,
but often left to get too dark
and make the earth's noon like night?
Does not the truth of life deserve
to be more...

THE WISE CHOICE
THE WISE CHOICE
Mary, you're a sublime woman.
Your sacrifice is not little.
You've agreed to be a mother
through a miracle from heaven.
Life is full of doubtful people,
but your faith has endless power
that can see the divine matters
and not care about the human.
What can people give a person
save what can assure his presence
on the earth which is a period
that elapses just like seconds?
You have chosen what has made you
lead all mankind to require
inner comfort which is endless
and escape from...

CHRISTMAS
CHRISTMAS
So great is life to have such God,
Who's all the goodness when it's full.
He is the supreme of what's good,
what is quite perfect and sublime.
We lack perfection on the earth
and always ask to meet with it
to give us power and delight.
He showed Himself to us as man.
We've felt surprised just from the start,
at His birth, early life and mind.
His love astonished who saw Him
present His blood and heart as food.
How don't we celebrate the birth
of that ideal love Who died
to save who killed...

HIS WAY IS TOO HARD.
HIS WAY IS TOO HARD.
How can you read about His deeds
and stay quite neutral in your love?
He had great passion for the weak
and saved them from the senseless hearts.
He saved that woman from the stones;
which had no pity on her head.
They moved like insects in their hands
to bleed her skin and that of Christ.
He was not frightened by their flint.
Can l behave just as He did
or hurry to hide in my house
and think of self a saint in creeds?

DEARER THAN SELF
DEARER THAN SELF
How can man begin true love
if he knows that he will die?
He's involved in deepest sense
which controls his tender heart.
How can one connect himself
with a person and then goes,
leaving her and going far
with no hope to meet again?
Man is soft and can't depart
neglecting whom he adores.
There's no meaning for his life
if he starts but can't remain.
Love exists to stay alive,
or it burns where it resides.
Only heaven makes us sure
man won't suffer after death.

ARE PEOPLE EQUAL?
ARE PEOPLE EQUAL?
Where are the people who see life
is full of charm that's crime to waste?
There is something hidden somewhere
that makes a person satisfied.
But where is that most obscure gem
and how can we advance to it?
So few can know. It's well concealed,
but it will cheer who finds that wealth..
The jewel's your effect on men,
and making them so pleased with selves.
Look for this target that quite few
can find and practise on mankind.
A lot of people are...

THEY AREN'T INFERIOR.
THEY AREN'T INFERIOR.
The days that passed attract our sighs.
They bring some tears that fill our eyes.
The folk who lived in those past days
were great at what they used to say.
They were so perfect in their deeds,
so full of wisdom and of wit.
They were so kind and full of might
and able to create that past.
We speak for long about their acts
as we have missed their lovely sight.
We don't compare with open mind
them with those who are living now.
Why don't we look at who are near
and see their goodness...

BEWARE WHAT YOU CHOOSE!
BEWARE WHAT YOU CHOOSE!
Change the danger into welfare,
where what's sin will get a virtue
as the face of Christ will tell you
when you start to see His brilliance.
Sin can spread the views of horror
in your heart and tint its darkness,
where the night can hide the devils
who can cause you lots of despair.
When you seek what's dark and gloomy,
Satans give all what can darken.
But you turn your darkened vision,
and life's stars will start to twinkle.
Then, you see...
