Search not for glory somewhere,

It lies in the smile that you wear,

When hardship you silently bear,

You are a winner my dear sir !

---

Rules of discipline when you obey,

Others also will follow your way,

Learn the holy technique to pray,

Will be Divine whatever you say !

---

Correct your inferiors, don't punish,

Best way is to properly admonish,

Find not in others any blemish,

In heart, love must never diminish !

---

If you are perspiring,

That will be inspiring,

When duty isn't tiring,

Joy, you will be hiring !

---

Others, you boldly lead,

With controlled speed,

Guidance is the need,

To good advice, heed!

---

When others' burden, you share,

You prove that you kindly care,

Sharing plus caring is fair,

For example, remember the Air !

---

You produce a masterpiece,

That only is your real service,

Try to earn decently Rupees,

But, don't sacrifice your sleep !

---

When your action is remarkable,

You prove that you are capable,

To the World, you turn agreeable,

For victory, you become eligible !

---

Defeat may try to badly scare,

Never at all have nightmare,

Extra hours, if you wisely spare,

You and success will form a pair!

---

God alone is your true friend,

Before Him, let your knees bend,

All your agonies, He will mend,

All embrace only Him in the end !
