By fact or act, We're posterity; Of our lineage's integrity, Whose red-coal desire we draft; With every living in our heart. At the onset of our journey, We feet the history terrain; With every muscle and vein, We sweatingly forge on- though hungry; Our goal we collimate to displace each worry. Leaps and strides we take, With passionate aspiration; Barricades of utter retrogression, Deep-redden with each step awake; And all fathomable bits akake. Sweat profuse, Little acheieved; The lanes of each make-refused, Resounding pushes, confusion it often infuse; Forces of defences deduced. On thism sky-stretched lane, Many epitaph are made; Regardless of the lava-hot wade, The drained soul surely must wane; Far beyond any existing bane. Every heart goes on a life-long adventure, Legions labouring others destination; Many few with pace-setting inclination, Thus listless ambition punture; At some very important juncture. QUOTE: Those who journey without convinced destination never make their journey, but are made by their journey. « return. |
