O restless heart! Where has your peace been lost, what happened to your happiness, who destroyed your tranquility? You too are strange; by chasing a few hard-to-attain desires, you have put your own peace and contentment at stake!!!
Look! There is no wealth greater than peace, learn to be happy! By drinking plain water, by sitting under the shade of trees and walls, by thinking about eternal peace after this short-lived life. Learn to be happy! By listening to the songs of turtledoves and cuckoos, by being enchanted by the mesmerizing melodies of the nightingale, by watching the moth revolve around the candle.
Feel the chirping of birds and the roaring of rivers! Populate the world of your own heart! Fall in love with solitude, make books your dearest friends! Leave despair and work with diligence, and along with all of this, take the name of your Lord.
