```

My Lord,

No matter how hard I try,

No matter how many ways

I kill myself to please You,

I can never please You.

Now it has come to a point

That I am arguing with myself

Whether I should continue trying

To please You.

Is it really worthwhile?

"My child,

I am sharing a top secret with you.

I have been also doing

The same thing.

You have no idea how hard

I have been working

To make you happy.

Alas, it is of no avail.

But something within Me

Is telling Me to continue,

So I shall continue.

And I am requesting you

To do the same.

I am sure there will come a time

When both of us will succeed.

As you know, our philosophy

Is never to give up.

So before long,

We are bound to succeed."
