On the tallest mountain,
From the highest peak;
All around the chilly wind,
In front expanding horizons;
Above the head, the sky
With all its suns and stars;
And down deep below!!
The earth I have lived,
The earth I have seen,
The earth I have loved,
And also I have hated.
So I ran away from earth
To find things more worth.
I looked at the horizons
They did not respond;
I turned to suns and stars
They too broke their bond;
What to do now?
I cannot fly
And reach sky.
Cannot envision
The horizon.
I looked down
To the earth,
I had hated
Where I lived.
With open arms
It drew me down;
I do not know
when and why
It took me
In its fold;
And till now
Cajoles me.
And people say
It will continue
To extend its fold
Till I will end
My relations
With it,
On this earth.
And I am
Convinced.
