Please tell me Lord, for you know it
Tell me Lord,
because You know,
if still are
living our fathers
and where lie
their spirits?
Where are the
loves and the sighs
The bright ideas
The shaking power
of the nations in the
world?
And where are the
pleasures of flesh
And the wealth of
the globe?
Where the ancient,
human wisdom
boundless and
eternal?
Where is now that
mother
who tender spent herself
on her children?
And that strong
father
Who seemed omnipotent?
Where are those
games away,
Where age carefree
And the
long-awaited youth dreams?
It cannot finish
all
During our short
life
And all disappear
into Nothingness!
