Wake up
Wake up my friends
Dusts and deserts are
Killing the flowers and grass
Voices are dying
Beating their own tongues
Against the black hours of time
Intentionallyto remain dumb
Now we are master of dark despite
This sproutsin the waves of death
And upon broken clouds
With granite tears and iced emotions
Our hearts mourn in every second
Like the bubbles of flowing water
Sympathy occurs
Strings of love strike
However, suddenly it gropes darkness
Not to care but to hate
Keep everything nice but absurd
Do not rate the time but fall
Love and courage
Only a craze, only a coy
Adventures are not to run for soul
However, fly for a frantic doll
Roads full of blind Vision
Rooms are full of sensual season
Wake up my friends
Before we lose the ground
Before the time slain
To ache our heart with unholy pain
Hollowed fire do not burn within
Do not debase the humane shrine
Web the earth with worth and shine
