It may be wise to keep hatred at bay
Even if you dislike your neighbor,
It’s unwise to harbor hatred in your heart,
because it can consume you whole
It doesn’t help a man who seeks revenge.
Go to bed each night serene
Retribution never delivers delight
But keeps your wounds fresh and alive
How does it aggrandize yourself
To harm a friend with cruel pursuit
He who satiate his lust for revenge
Plotting harm on others lacks tact
Because rancor knows no bounds,
It mostly boomerangs on you
You may be the victim trapped in the hole
you have hollowed out for your foe!
Even if you have no heart for others
But for the love of yourself
Cast aside your ardor for spite
Refrain from ruining your life
Love is the best form of revenge
You will raise your profile with all men
With deeds of love and forgiveness
You will conquer yourself and the world!
