Are you kind to the helpless and lost?

Are you kind
To the helpless and lost?
Are you really compassionate
Toward evildoers?
Are you most happy
To see the success of others?
Are you indifferent, by the power of wisdom,
To those who annoy you for no reason?
Seeing people in the slumber of ignorance,
Do you firmly seek supreme enlightenment?
Would you not weary of endless ages
Of spiritual practice?
