Hit on the head
Once in a while
Once in a day
Every day;
...
Come with me,
Pour me your trust;
For I cannot see,
See you dart,
...
Ere thou claim from ancestors and birth,
A place in heaven, a piece of earth;
Thou shall re-invent in much nobler thought,
The true human-art, the true human-worth;
...
Centuries are done!
But my land and I exist yet,
Under the visage of desolation,
Camouflaged by an arrogant power;
...
Loved, Hated, Dominated;
I seek an answer,
For I am created-
Why? With a skin
...
Your love for me brings
A world beyond consciousness
And swooningly infallible
Searing away the repentant vows
...
Wilt thou recall my name
Throughout our resolute parting game
- And after?
Or will it deaden and die
...
With you,
Shall my worldly rest be gone
And shall I be passed
Like the dead are passed on;
...
Long, long shall my thoughts lean
Uptill that secret hour
The sacred array of moments
That, in time, have passed
...
Ever since arrived the days
Of wicked youth and folly
And did sicken, irk me
The thought of love;
...
