Death

Beware that death is watching for you; it is with you.  Catch its look; it is staring at you and will suddenly appear to you. 

Die before you turn to a carcass...

Remember, before you, there were people who came and left; and, before them, there were their parents as well.  O you worldly-minded people learn your lesson!  Soon, you shall equally die.  Look what you are taking with you?  You have a long journey ahead of you; what are your provisions for it?

What are you trying for?  For, whatever you have gathered by now shall belong to others...

Do not believe that death is distant.  Look so you could find it very close.  Indeed, it is waiting for you...Lest it suddenly strikes you. 

Are you waiting to repent?  He who delays to repent is trifling with the Lord and his repentance shall not be accepted...

Go to cemeteries.  Indeed, those dead were also some time like you; they also had spent their time in ignorance and their lifetime in doubt. 

Take a lesson.  They finally migrated; you shall do as well.  Despite every denial, doubt and mockery, a cold-dark tomb shall be your last resting place and you shall be the host of underground creatures...

You shall remain lonely; your children, parents, friends and acquaintances shall leave you alone.  Know that your death is your fate.  In the due time, it will catch you. 

Everyone's soul is waiting for a small sign from the Mighty Lord to leave one's body.  What makes you confident?  Have you forgotten this world does not last only a moment?

Have you ever seen someone running away from death?  No wonder! You have never seen one, not ever.
