Wake up, my friend

Wake up, my friend,
Life revolves on the wheel of do and be done by –
Give and take, act and react –
Yet there’s a different way of being,
A way to break free from the cycle

A way to break free from the cycle
Your human life offers an opportunity,
To awaken and expand your perspective,
Be aware of life’s sacred heart

Be aware of life’s sacred heart,
Be mindful of what you do,
Choose your deeds with utmost caution,
Align your actions with life’s heart, with love

Align your actions with life’s heart, with love,
This moment is a chance in eternity –
By what you do shift from ignorance to understanding,
Walk the way of liberation

Walk the way of liberation,
Be true and compassionate to all,
You yourself will become godlike,
You yourself – be divine.
