Do It Now To Gain Serenity After Eternity Poem by Bernedita Rosinha Pinto

The fire is me
the water is you
If you want to extinguish me
do it now.

The lion is me
the tiger is you
if you want to walk along in that forest of reality
do it now.

The idol is me
the worshiper is you
if you want to revere me
do it now.

The mother-earth is me
the child is you
if you want to nurture me as I nurture you
do it now.

The sun is me
the earth is you
if you want to live in compliance with peace
do it now.

The ocean is me
the river is you
if you want to flow with love everywhere
do it now.

The universe is me
the world is you
if you want to be a part of me
do it now.

The star is me
the moon is you
if you want to drive away the darkness
do it now.

The dawn is me
the nightfall is you
if you want to strengthen your dreams
do it now.

The victorious is me
the defeated is you
if you want to win and be humble like me
do it now.

The death is mine
the life is yours
if you want to live virtuously like me
do it now.

The forgiveness is me
the sinner is you
if you want to repent and gain serenity after eternity
do it now.
