YOU WILL REGRET IT
Do not stay away from God,
Do not stray onto other paths,
Do not serve the devil,
You will regret it later.
The ego (Nefis) is also a devil,
A soul that will suffer punishment,
The world is a temporary inn,
You will regret it later.
Do not ever worship the world,
Do not serve anyone (but God),
Do not ever stray from the truth,
You will regret it later.
Main Idea of the Poem: The poem is entirely centered on the themes of
staying on the right path, struggling against the ego/lower self (nefis),
and moving away from worldly ambitions. It carries a very clear message.
