This House is Not For Sale


No matter how much wealth you have,

This house is not for sale and will never be,

You must earn your entry to this house,

It’s owned by a being of  the highest degree…


It isn’t difficult to get to this house,

Your monetary wealth doesn’t count,

It’s a different type of wealth,

And not the size of your bank account…


The wealth you have to possess,

Is not very costly at all,

It includes charity, respect, faith in God,

And on your way, many times you may fall…


But pick yourself up,

After you may fall,

The journey is not tough,

And the benefits are best of all…


You can’t own this house,

You only become a dweller,

You don’t want to go the other way,

Because it’s very hot in that cellar…

 

The name of this house is heaven,

As you may have figured out by now,

The benefit is living forever,

To this I can avow…
