Today's work is finished,
Body and mind need rest,
Energy has diminished,
After delivering the best,
For me, God has wished,
I will carry on with zest,
Need must be fulfilled indeed,
Greed-less life, I must lead,
Deed be to plant hope-seed,
Surely will flower tomorrow,
By hoping I will meet it,
From hearts, love I borrow,
Time supplies me minute,
By not keeping mind narrow,
I will cultivate loving habit!
