Which Is Heaven Poem by Rm. Shanmugam Chettiar

Which Is Heaven



Consistently does sun burn.
Incessantly does moon turn.
Without rest the earth is on move.
Every planet thus revolves.
Why? No purpose is adduced.

Plants are born and do die.
Animals are born and do die.
You are born and will die.
Every animate comes and goes.
Why? No purpose is adduced.

Eat, drink and be merry.
Then the earth is Heaven.
Pray, fast and perish.
Then the faith is Heaven.
Be it a heaven, if earth or faith.
