“Love Not the World”
The world is one thing, earth another.
You might think, two sides of the same coin.
There are always two sides of a coin.
Have you ever dreamed of getting rich?
Many people dream of getting rich.
Ambition can become your master.
Ambition becomes a hard master.
In my heart there are always blue skies,
Blue skies and cotton clouds in my heart.
In the world there are backstabbers and liars.
The world is full of backstabbers and liars.
Earth is filled with grass and lovely trees.
I love the earth with its lovely trees.
The world is one thing, earth another.
