1. Tide of Wisdom
(By: Ceasar M. Morandarte, UPOU-MENRM, 2010)
May I pray to the Universal Father of Goodness and Justice
The benefactor of the foundation of heaven and Earth
The solitary source of the water of life and death
The real and definitive provider of the tide of wisdom
Let no man think
That he is powerful than the stars
That he is the most intelligent creature than the trees
For all he knew, nothing else but an infinitesimal speck
Of the tide of wisdom
Let no man think
That he explores the vastness of the whole universe
That he calculates the sea of meteors in the galaxy
The age and path of every planet
Because wherever his intelligence flutter
Still it is just a sheer reflection
Of the tide of wisdom
The modern prophets call themselves as the scientists
Claiming they are intellectuals
Revealing the facts and mysteries of creation
Advocating the flow of mental powers of every mortal
Yet, it is just a reminiscent
Of the tide of wisdom

2. The leaders of modern times
They proclaim themselves as the agent of prosperity
Yet, they design the trickery of deception
They muster the bitterness of wars instead of peace
All they had achieved in their short lifetime
Is just a footprint in the tide of wisdom
Let the tide of wisdom
Open our hearts, our minds, and our souls
Let us embrace the truth
That our names are written in the book of life
Let us drink the overflowing water from the fountain of life
Let us eat the sweet fruits of the tree of life
In the end
Let our joint prayers be heard by the Holy One
Let peace and joy controls the universe
Let the new Kingdom in heaven and in the Earth
Conquers the hearts and minds of all living life forms
And non-living things
We are all sons and daughters
Part and parcels and witnesses of the truth
Of the immeasurable wisdom
Of the Living God
