643. Look and see
Look and seeIf you have criticised God.
Look and see
If you have deceived man.
Look and see
If your proud mouth has overestimated yourself.
Look and see
If your timid heart has underestimated yourself.
If you have criticised God,
Don’t worry.
He will illumine you.
If you have deceived man,
Don’t worry.
He will deceive you back.
Therefore you will not owe him anything.
If you have overestimated
Or underestimated yourself,
Don’t worry.
Just dive within
And you will unmistakably know
Where you really stand.
