I say to all who I observe-
What good have I attain at the present?
The air I breathe was at no cost,
So is this life which carves away,
What have I prepared for the world newly?
Spawning of the buds on a plant-
And the greenery that remains unharmed,
All this is offered to me without a question,
How could I ever reimburse my debt?
companionship of a family and friends,
Each earned their way to me,
The deficit in someone’s time-
When I ask a favor,
When have I spared a breath?
