IS THIS THE TRUTH

Is it not true To do wrong is more unhappy than to suffer wrong We shall enjoy a world wherein love is the norm Pray that ignorance, disease, poverty are swiftly becoming things of the past It behoves us to cherish a heritage of enlightenment that lasts People from across all the sea's and oceans of the world Are our brothers and sisters to you and me Learning knows no ranks Be not ashamed to ask those beneath you Pray that man's nature to be good Is like water flowing downward Seek your own pleasure But don't interfere with the pleasure of others Wish the goodness in mankind To be a measurement of all things and kinds Slaves are human beings Let us all glorify freedom To progress through education Is a universal science to elevate our nature
