Keeping The Vow Commitments

1. Bear with the harshness of your
Destined conjugal life:
Neither more, nor less!

2. With the tickling of contemplation 'll.
Ooze out' Abi-zam-zam' (Amrit) by Zekhir: (loud chanting in quick succession)
From the springs of the heart !
After Shirin did Farhad
Sacrifice his life:
Bear with the harshness of
Conjugal life,
Neither more, nor less !

3. Should you toil till,
The fallow land,
Teased and tossed about would you
No longer, be, for
Your past lapses:
Wait not but,
Self-till the waste lands:
Keeping your promises.
Neither more, nor less!

4. Harvesting, O, you grower,
Beware
Of tussle, jealousy and turmoil !
Control emotions and abstain from
Infectious enmity !
Harvesting, O, you harvester,
Cherish'ld you, the joy of
Achievement! S
ick to your worn,
Neither more, nor less!

5.Far from malice and anger,
Pay off your dues (revenue)
In the following meadows, and
Await your calm and peace !
Walk in step and at ease,
Sure, you'll reach your goal !
Keep your balance in your promises,
Neither.more, nor less!

6. Melting the steel of ego and conceit,
Mould it into ornamental border:
Firmly hold and, keep your calm:
Waste not a moment,
Run to master Khar.
Keep your word,
Neither more, nor less !

7. Had thought I, that
Wahab would appreciate
My plea and,
Give me a healing touch:
But those, whom gods love,
Are called from above !
Stand by your word,
Neither more, nor less!

8. What reply can I give
To the promise, I have made?
Time is slipping by and,
The Sun is about to Set!
Compassionate towards me
Would He be....................
Nor would He look to my lapses!
Keep your vow in view.
Neither more, nor less !

9. Clean hearted is a free soul,
But Parmanand is wanting
In faith and love:
Pray appreciate his plea and,
Grant his prayers!
Be true to your commitment,
Neither more, nor less!
