Do It Now

by Nathmal Sharma

Don’t think too much, about anything, but do it now.
The time is passing quickly, you will do it later, how?

Past has gone & Future is unknown, only present for you.
You think, ‘I shall do it tomorrow', but it will be late too.

There'll be none of the same hours, people & emotions, as today.
Uncertainty of life says, 'What will you feel, grief or gay?'

Laziness and adjournment may ruin all your plan and work.
God of death doesn’t feel pity, he snatches life in a jerk.

Those who were alive, gossiped, laughed, they all went to death.
So, don’t think too much, do it now, with determination & faith.

Kabir says :- Kal kare so aaj kar,
Aaj kare so abb.
Pal meh parlaya hoyegi,
buhuri karego kab.
