My mother groaned, my father wept,
Into the dangerous world i leapt;
Helpless, naked, piping loud,
Like a fiend hid in a cloud.
William blake (1757 - 1827)
When i came into the world
Black star fell to the ocean
Bed over the mount of solid gold
The sky was dressed in fiery red
In dull day when dark clouds wept
I was born in the cave of cold
My mother heard the voice of death
When i came into the world
No tomorrow time went by
Child of sorrow bound to die
I want to go to a better place
This place is known to me alone
Unable to find the end of the maze
Behind the walls where wild winds groan
Wherever i go i will come to dead-end
To find a short-cut is my devout wish
How do i know where is my promised land
In the ocean of tears i don't feel like a fish
No tomorrow time went by
Child of sorrow bound to die
I want to go to a better place
This place is known to me alone
Unable to find the end of the maze
Behind the walls where wild winds groan
