WITH THE WORLDS INSIDE, TURNING EXHILARATING LIFE …
By Lida Sherafatmand

As the worlds turn inside,
The world of hell,
Where we want to die,
The world of hunger,
Where we don’t get enough,
The world of animality,
Where we fear
The stronger ones who bully,
The jungle of animals,
The world of anger,
Where we fight for supremacy
With aggression we move,
The world of tranquility,
Where we laze passive,
The world heaven,
Where we enjoy desires satisfied,
Our houses bought, our jobs given,
The world of learning,
Where we search meanings,
Knowledge to learn and discover,
But we get lonely there,
The world of realization,
Where we find wisdom
Reach insights,
But we get lost in intellect,
The world of compassion
Where we feel the pain of others,
Do all to help,
But lose energy and sink with those who suffer,
The world of holiness,
Where we feel freedom inside,
Happiness in the realities
Of daily life,
A flow of pure life force or consciousness;
When in leadership
The holiness world
Leads the right sides of the other worlds:
In the world of hell,
We understand the pains
And sufferance of people;
In the world hunger,
We drive for a better the world;
In the world of animality,
We strife to protect the weak;
In the world of anger,
We fight for justice;
In the world of tranquillity,
We regain our energies;
In the world of heaven,
We exhilarate being alive;
In the world of learning,
We learn from everyone;
In the world of realization
We digest our experiences;
In the world of compassion,
We devote ourselves
For the happiness of all,
In the world of holiness
We reach the core of life,
That harmony and force
Which keeps us alive,
Brings together the other nine worlds inside,
To lead and to live…
In the ten worlds inside,
What travel we do,
What turnings we lead,
In the ten worlds inside,
Let’s keep the holy world
The leader of all inside,
For all the ten worlds, to turn alive
Exhilarating happiness
Exhilarating life…
With the worlds inside,
Turning exhilarating happiness,
Exhilarating life…
