Help
This is a translation of the author's French Poem "L'aide"
Help
The human being is always alone
Except when he is with himself
Those who believe in friendship
Believe it honestly
A friend is always within us
You can not believe in anything
If you do not believe in yourself
If you can help, wake up early
A help seeker does not have to ask for,
One should anticipate it
If someone has to request help
He is already humiliating himself
If you can provide a needed help
Do it before it becomes guilt,
Before you become a help seeker
This is the essence of being human.
