If You Lose
In the worldly life
If you lose a job,
You can reach another
If friends slip away from you,
You can meet with other ones
If a partner leaves you,
You can love another
All such figures
You can regain
However, remember it,
You can never have again
If you lose once your parents,
The aged father and mother
Pay attention to them,
With love and respect
Realize and understand
The time will come upon you
As such status, as well.
