I proved to the world that laurels can arrive
In time to the ones who made the air stop and believe
It was my time to laugh
When others from the background smiled, I worked

They focused on the mission that marvels our imagination
These people who became married in time left me
Never trusted our advice that came during rain
Maybe we trespassed in that winter

To accept the praises of the humble servants
Who visited their masters without gifts
Being gifted I was lavished
But to my greatest surprise, songs were sung

I regretted making godly friends
Whose trust I gained by wisdom
But folly laughed last when the story began
And it was told to the blind who believed everything!
