A light of the ages,
The favourite of the muses,
Mightier than Excalibur
Is my poetic sceptre.
Dig deep into artistic dungeons
And unlock the wits of ages;
Reveal to the world mysteries
And lead me to palaces.
Dumb shall I be
Without your forging steam;
Dumb shall I be
Without your voice.
Severe the cords of our tradition;
Reflect the light of our generation.
Imprint your footprint
On the indelible path to posterity.
Sting he who kidnaps thee
And return with xenophobic wings.
Leave me not my gentle brother
And in oath I’ll leave you never.
Travel your treasured distance
On my pieces of paper.
