Many a stratagem I employed, yet it was of no avail;
How many schemes I have tried but to no avail
But it called me to calm and contentment.
Yet God calls me to calm and acceptance

If the mounts of resolve falter for a while,
When the steeds of resolve lose their strength for a while
Entrust their reins to the hand of fate.
Surrender their reins into the hands of destiny
