All the opportunities in life you get, you have to avail
All the opportunities in life you get, you have to avail
Let peace and serenity at heart and mind prevail
Perform all duties you have to which has to be done
You yourselves will have to do it, depend on none
In life, open heart and mind you have to keep
Do not be carried away by feeling so deep
Prepare for circumstances you have to face or may arise
Do not be surprised by circumstances which may surprise
Right thing and right path will save your time
Lead such a life, your life will always shine

Explanation in English
In this English hymn, He shows us how fortunate we are and what we need to do to continue so that we can continue to receive His grace for a very happy and peaceful life -
God has given each one of us so many, many chances in life such that we have to really appreciate it by not wasting those chances
We have to be humble to accept God's kindness, be truly thankful in our heart and mind and be contented with what all God has given us such that we do not want for more and more
We need to be a good human being with everyone, take care of our family responsibilities, help whoever we can however we can and seek God
We have to do what we need to do by ourselves and not just pass this to anyone else to do on our behalf
While we must have appreciation of others' circumstances, we should not be so carried away that we neglect everything else that needs to be done by us
Life will surely throw us a lot of unexpected surprises despite our own preparations of various sorts and how well we may have planned everything
Surrendering to God and continuously doing everything to seek God will help us live a satisfying life such that we have a minimum of difficulties in life
We must realize that we are so blessed by the grace of God that He only will help us with whatever our worldly obligations are and He will ensure that we do not lack anything. All we need to do is to request Him to do whatever He thinks is best and we seek closeness and then oneness with God, such that no matter what comes into our lives, we will be able to overcome it with God's protective umbrella covering us
