About Wealth

*Most popular old song with strong message
(**OLD-eez-GOLD** collection-TELUGU)

*Meaning:

Wealth is the root(-cause) for all
(good and bad things happening around the world;
quote: money makes many things)

It is fundamental duty of we humans
to know
the value of wealth

humans created so-called 'wealth'
became slave to It (knowingly/unknowingly)

The one who regulates wealth
and
does not surrender to It
is
wise-man
strong-man
and
god-Himself!

When you have lot of money, save it wisely
On the penny-less day, work hard, earn, and save it

If you simply sit and eat, 'mountain-like' wealth soon disappears
Happiness disappears in Families, if they do not know that fact

**

There is wealth in the sweat of labour
Also there is wealth in farmer's muscle-strength
The one who is hard-working,
entire world is house-of-wealth

You commit a big mistake
if you are careless
and
ignore and misuse wealth

O lord bAlAji!
mighty god of seven hills!

Covered many steps (of Tirupati-Tirumala hill),
still invisible(?)

saints and scholars say
You are everywhere!
Shower Your grace on us
to reach Your lotus feet!

O lord bAlAji!
mighty god of seven hills!
