Claps and Whistles

Claps and Whistles 
 
Every effort of mine went to fail 
I did them well with my whole heart 
They went to fail and made me to cry 
I have given my strain and time to win 
I was placed as a looser before fools 
and vagabonds 
They laughed and scolded me to my loss 
I have been defeated, yes 
I have been defeated by Him and Time 
What for? and 
Why did I have been pushed? 
To the hell of my failure 
I asked Him repeatedly 
Mute is a reply received from Him 
There is a garland came to head 
for my historic victory in my field 
Claps and whistles placed me in the 
Heaven of fame 
There I received His reply as claps and 
Whistles
