CONTENTMENT, by AL-TUTILI
First Line: Leave wealth where wealth is found
Last Line: Until you bare its blade.
First Line: Leave wealth where wealth is found
Last Line: Until you bare its blade.
Leave wealth where wealth is found,
To folk who boast it's theirs:
It is the battleground
Of all superfluous cares.
In avarice and greed
No longer be arrayed:
The sword cuts not, indeed,
Until you bare its blade.
