SPELL


He looked so worn-out, shattered and devastated.
...

Tell me not, in mournful numbers,
Life is but an empty dream!
For the soul is dead that slumbers,
And things are not what they seem.

SPELL


He looked so worn-out, shattered and devastated.
His village people won't let him live.
I said it! They won't let him be.

The up North sun turned a cook and burnt his skin.
His village people won't let him live.
I said it! They won't let him be.

The tormenting rain of the South, after his soft trek.
washed sanity away from him.
His village people won't let him live.
I said it! They won't let him be.

The faces of the world have appeared to him in phases;
His village people won't let him live.
I said it! They won't let him be.

As a child, then a teenager and in adulthood has he wallowed endlessly.
His village people won't let him live.
I said it! They won't let him be.

He has simply addressed his matter with care;
But this world is not just his place...
His village people won't let him live.
I said it! They won't let him be.

His world wouldn't just agree to him with tranquillity;
As his fated fate has melted with doom.
His village people won't let him live.
I said it! They won't let him be.

His village people won't let him live.
I said it! They won't let him be.
I said it! They won't let him be.
His village people won't let him live.
