Women Have No Bearing

When I was younger, Father told me of love When I became older, Mother told me of marriage The road I see now seems lost Because I have been betrayed at last By the only place I found rest. See through my heart of heart, Make the soul of knowledge there Better for a child to die than get missing, Women had betrayed my trust Hold your peace and listen; For I sing of bitterness not love. Women have no bearing, Holding their beads seem so confusing I have decided to be alone; For women are so frustrating like the sun, Their ancient mother betrayed man through apple So has she done to me now. The soul of a woman is the serpent itself. When you see father, Tell him I want to be alone When mother comes, Let her know I have broken the waist beads; Women have no bearing and their souls Are the soul of the old serpent; But I wondered how father manages mother. I have to tidy my soul, I have to flush out her poisonous words; To look ahead in my loneliness, For being alone is better than Habouring a liar within your household.
