Shakespeare, you were born there
At that house,
O you, the writer dramas,
Tragedies, comedies, tragi-comedies
And historical plays,
Shakespeare
The writer of sonnets,
You were born there!
The house is still, but times not,
Have flown away,
Memories lying blurred
With regard to your portrait
And biography,
Shakespeare,
O you, the great writer of
The Merchant of Venice, Tempest,
As You Like It,
Macbeth, Hamlet, Othello,
Julius Caesar, King Lear!
Shakespeare, you were born at
Henley Street, Stratford-upon Avon, Warwickshire,
But tell you personally,
How could you manage to write
World-famous dramas,
Did you ever intend to be a dramatist
Or were you an actor
Who took to composition for audience sake
Marking the taste just as a drama company artiste?
