Hidden ignorance, absence of knowledge be,
Of Self, Maya, body-due to ignorance only
By whose grace knowledge of Self got be,
He is known by the name 'Guru' assuredly.

Sri Sampaka Gita in English rhyme is a part of the ancient Mahabharat.
Sri Sampaka Gita is a dialogue between Yudhishthira and Bhishma

Yudhishthira:
'Grandsire! How the happiness and misery,
Achieved by the rich and poor in actuality?
And who live in the observance in reality,
Do tell different practices and rites worldly?

Bhishma's reply concludes as follows:
For this reason, I regard Renunciation clearly,
To be the foremost of all things unquestionably.
