I went to an art and book festival
I saw books, very many books
I saw Michelangelo, heard Mozart
At the art and book festival.

Flowers were shared, plays were staged
I heard songs. I saw dances
I saw Adam
I saw Eve, and even little ones.

I went to an art and book festival
Poems were read, short stories too
Highlife, jazz, sundry songs were played
At the art and book festival.

O lord, please, spare my life that I may be
At another art and book festival!
