Expect nothing, & keep on walking
Keep on loving but living life frugally
Shower onto yourself happiness & keep surprising
Become a stranger to all hardships & pains
Arise to the needs of pity, forget material gains
Reach out with compassion freely flowing
Pledge not to grab all but only take enough
Even if the need is really much
And the going gets tough
Do not crouch & crumble under pressure
Purging away all needs, tracing the way to pure pleasures
No pleadings, no urgings, just doing away with all sloughs
Wish for nothing larger, something not much than your own heart
If you want to be great, shine greater than a star
Shoo away disappointments that hurt
Or tame them with love, warmth & care
So that all evils, all darkness your soul does dare
Don’t get disillusioned, just keep on playing your part
With every new day, discover new truths
New blessings, findings &happiness
Learn to comfort & soothe
Learn new lessons on being human
On surprises, joy & happiness work out your rejuvenation
Embrace always the lonely, deprived, and weary;
But keep your eyes open & beware of the creatures uncouth
Learn to look forward with hope, but do away with all Expectations.
