TALKS
- I am poor and unblessed,
Mother, let me go to You.
- No back way to whom have passed,
Be more patient and endure.
- Tell me, why I came this world
Such a pitiful and hard?
- Me myself it wheezing held,
Baby, all it disregard.
- Men become malicious why,
Always struggles with each other.
- Suffered I this torment by,
And not know the reason rather.
- I believed the men – was humble,
Only patience – faith, you said.
- And for me that trust made trouble,
In result a tomb I made.
- No place indeed to follow by,
Mummy, let me move your way.
- You are exhausted, pretty my,
Stand a little, oh, I say.
- Call me on, just you can save,
Heart will happy be at all.
- If you also go to grave,
Who’ll me in the world recall?
TO WHOM I LEAN
Once a youngster boy demanded,
Why you cry to God in sad?
Can you my reply amend,
None I have to lean but God.
Cheat you always round, space,
Friend along with love disgrace,
If all day one in such case,
None I have to lean but God.
I am not ungrateful but,
I have also heart-to-heart,
What to do if burns me child,
None I have to lean but God.
Justice, faith and sweet word -all,
Life like flood or horserace called,
While alive they make you fall,
None I have to lean but God.
Such a base was world for age,
And to seek devotion – strange,
Father own son avenges,
None I have to lean but God.
Lots of eyes one heart await,
Not soul, but the fame and fate,
Lighting not burn up all state,
None I have to lean but God.
Why I lived in world unkind,
As the naked horse was wild,
Crowd, I do reprimand,
None I have to lean but God.
Be not offended if you’re friend,
Maybe they as grievous stand,
A man like me would tell in sad,
None I have to lean but God.
Life is also goes to close,
Slowly fades I planted rose,
You may lean on self and boast,
None I have to lean but God.
