Pleasure a fruitless pursuit

In the evening Sun
Looking at your pleasing face my son

I realised the pursuit of pleasure as fruitless
Time wasting and disturbing to the mind's peace

I realised the pursuit of bliss far more fulfilling
Satisfying, elevating, an upholder of self esteem

May the Gods and Goddesses give me their grace
The fortune to enjoy the bliss far supreme
The resolve to avoid false gifts of the world
