We need many more lands to cultivate,
Crops we gain harvesting these again,
We acquire many inventions and assets,
Wealth we preserve and money we spend.
These are material things and temporary,
For few years or many years these last,
But these are perishable and we leave,
Momentary gain gives short term happiness.
Still we easily do not leave running behind,
We run behind matters and grasp these,
We favour and see new light of affection,
While we follow path of spirituality is nice.
Every material acquisition does not satisfy,
Desires grow more and spread like wild fire,
Wise persons do not attach mind in matters,
They love God and love light of wisdom.

Wealth and money are needed for survival and happy existence. But foolish are those who think that this alone can guarantee happiness and peace! Fortunate is the man who keeps himself close to God and his fellow beings! A beautiful poem rich in meaning reflecting your philosophy of life, Kumaramani sir!
Every material acquisition does not satisfy, Desires grow more and spread like wild fire, Wise persons do not attach mind in matters, They love God and love light of wisdom. This poem exposes the transitoriness of worldly possessions and the meaninglessness of spending a lifetime on the acquisition of material comforts!
