I Know How To Live
I do not play tricks
I do not use diplomacy
I do not pretend
To spoil
The purity of love
To damage
The essence of affection
I expect nothing
I do not deserve
Any return of my love,
My love is not a business
I am far from demands
All difficulties are powerless
That cry at my life doors
I am difficult
For all the difficulties
I know how to face that
I know how to live
Without any pleasure,
I just smile
And forgive
The cruelty of people,
Even I give love
In the return
I breathe Divine perfume
I see Divine lights
I dance and bath
In Divine colours
I am difficult-proof
As like waterproof
I am love, just love.
