My birth:
Starts at dawn
And leaves at sunset

And  my  life :
Is the overflow of  the  heart ,
its  beating and is the essence
  of  the  soul

My speech  :
If it exceeds the limit  of  silence
it does not cross the limits
 of  the  whisper

My cries :
Are confused sighs
Breathing   in  my  five  prayers

My hopes :
  Are challenge  flowers
Growing in the despair desert
