1. PRAYER
1. A is the first letter of languages; the
      Sun is the origin of planet Earth


2. Of what avail education is, if one does not
      admire and follow the learned, the pure


3. Those who follow the light of nobility, live
      in fame that survives the world


4. Who are guided by the one, above likes and dislikes,
      face no impediments in life


5. Ignorance and faults afflict not those, who gain
      glory in the grace of the great benefactor


6. Controlled senses of body eyes ears nose and mouth
      and disciplined life, ensure fame and survival


7. Distress does not afflict those, who adopt
      the path of the peerless


8. Swim the seas of wealth and happiness, guided by
      those who have crossed the sea of virtues


9. What worth are our still senses, lest they bow
      in reverence, guided by the adorable


10. Swim the vast sea of life and survive,
      seeking guidance of the great protector
