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
age carefree
And the long-awaited youth dreams?
It cannot finish all
During our short life
And all disappear into Nothingness!
