Among the many illusions that we inadvertently entertain
Is the one that incessantly revisits us time and again
That we are endowed with a bounty of free will
Not knowing it is constraints that our aspirations still
While men believe they can do whatever they want
It is the hand of God that indeed always haunts
That we are born with free will, but limitations reserve
In the predicaments that culminate what we deserve
It is the cycle of birth and rebirth that engenders circumstance
For God leaves nothing at all to random and chance
Our personal will can only take us where we are meant to go
Life only begets for us what destiny has for us in store
Ultimately, it is the will of God that prevails
No matter how much ego and ambition of us hail
Our actions, deeds, misdeeds and choices only entail
What fortunes and debts our next lifetime can avail
