Keys to the Universe 

If you are kind and don't ask for anything in return 
If someone else's success makes you happy like your own 
If you control and manage to convert anger, envy and jealousy, 
so that they don't go against yourself, 
and you conquer your mind again and again, 
happiness smiles at you. 

The keys of heaven are not unattainable, in the sky above, 
everything on Earth is visible and meaningful to those 
who have the sight to see more clearly. 

There is a large and living organism 
where every part is equally important. 
Whoever extends a hand of respect 
without expecting fame and earthly recognition, 
everything comes as a gift anyway 
and not because of personal merit, 
will be celebrated among people. 

The keys to the Universe exist, 
not to be selfishly hidden in a pocket, 
but to open the doors of many locked hearts with them.
