Leave Your Ego Poem by Mohammad Younus

Don't trust in ego, don't trust the egoistic mind;
Beware! like cancers, they eat up your life cells;
It is the inspiration of your unhealthy mind...
Or jailed ideas' irritation!
Don't seek through ego Devil's stuff:
That will run through your veins boiling your blood;
Ultimately it will overpower and kill you!
Let ego fast extinguish in your mind;
Let you not take the poisonous drink of ego;
Could you, sometimes, in any sacred flash...
Find in your soul, the spring of life...
that is unknown, yet life-giving;
Don't be egocentric, full of thoughts...
... only about yourself;
Don't hearken them nor trust in them a slight;
Just leave your ago, leave aspiring...
That the world must revolve around you;
Put on your ego - a full-size shroud;
Mind it!
You'll not ever be able to make the world...
dance to your tunes like an Indian snackcharmer...
Who plays at Murli to make a cobra dance to its tune.
