Once my Being said to me,
'This tongue is so vulgar!
Day and night it chatters untiring;
What's the way to silence it? '
I said, 'Why, keep a pebble into your mouth! '
After few days, my Being said to me,
'The tongue has been silent.
Now tell me what's the way
To silence the heart? '
I said, 'Alas!
Nothing but death can silence a heart ever.'
