A grave stone
Write over my gravestone
''He was a good son''
At the dawn he was born
He left with the sun
He was a king without a throne
He was just simply someone
He tried to enrich the art
His ink bottle was his heart
He wasn't the first nor the last
He made the eyes talking,
the hearts jumping,
the air singing,
the hair dancing
He wasn't the first nor the last
He made the moon shaping as a heart
He wasn't the first nor the last''
