If thou be not heart-entrancing, it is no sorrow; But, pity on theel if thou be not heart-melting, thou. Though the whole world be spellbound in allegiance to artifice, Courage! From thy own simplicity turn not back, thou. If the precious gem of sincerity is in thy own nature, Independent of applause from the present age art thou.. If thou canst not make the world turn to look on thy beauty, Look at thyself! Take a pride in thy own being, thou. The deep sea of reality thou hast made heaving with waves; Thou shalt sink the ship of imposture, and yet survive, thou. Those days are gone, when lies were the creed of versemaking; Now, should the Qibla shift that way, do not worship thither, thou. If to live within the eyes of men of insight is precious, With those bereft of vision hold no compromises, thou.
