Happy, happy New Year,
I wish you, O my dear,
Have a blissful life,
Free from lust and fear. |1|
The enemies within,
Which, cannot be seen,
Are lust and anger,
Those force us to commit sin. |2|
If we remain sinful,
How can we be peaceful?
O my dear, I have to tell you,
Awake, arise and be careful. |3|
Life is very precious,
We have to be serious,
To make the best use of it,
And prevent the greatest loss. |4|
The greatest loss,
Is failure to cross,
The cycle of birth, old age,
Disease and death.
