Life
Life,whose flute do thou blow?
Whose food do thou devour?
Life,aren`t you a soldier and a
circlet ovum?
Life do you live to die,die to live?
To what form,to what method you do
re-incarnate I wish I knew?
Life you are amazing
You are a small wonder of a-class
For sometime you dance here and pine,and sigh
for that that you cannot entrap
Life,you lie in womb;you lie in grave
You keep behind bars by force a prisoner
Who is a soul
Life you fight,feast,you fake face,faith
Life you taint,faint,foil,fail
Life you pray
Life you cannot pay your own debts!
You`re amazing life
Rituals,rites,romance,lies!
