THE TREASURE ISLAND
V. BALASUBRAMANIAN
God not seen, famed or named
Good hope He paves for as we pray
Universe He governs as He guards
Evil deeds He wipes off as chieftain
No caste or creed for the unseen force!
He pervades the globe as he watches
To ward off our worries He stays
We search heaven to earth for a peace
Earthly pursuits not offer us solace
Hell of a hunt we make in vain
Alas! that priceless peace not gained!
Sure! Almighty withholds that peace!
Thousands of possessions we have!
Inexplicable! how that free mind desired!
Our very birth sets on a restless state
Unto our end we never get a solace
Peace indeed on unattained Treasure Island!
