A Lamp Under A Basket !

A man when he has lit a lamp so grand,
Never puts it in a cellar nor under a basket,
But instead he puts it on a grandeur stand,
So that those who enter in may see the light.

Nothing is hidden that will not be revealed,
No secret ever that will not be known,
Anything will come to light,never be consumed,
The lamp of the body is the eye our own.

A good eye makes the whole body full of light,
But evil on the contrary makes it full of darkness,
Men who do not walk in the light so bright,
They only prefer to walk in the darkness.

The light has come in to the world indeed,
Alas ! men love darkness and only evil deed.

Footnote:
" Anyone who claims to be in the light but
hates his brother is still in the darkness."
John 2:9
