Hardship Is a Blessing Not a Curse

The Gods in the skies of the stars do 
dwell and live.
They see our sad tears and 
heartbreaks sown on cliffs.
Who truly does know their severe 
regiment
Which makes this small race into 
true supermen?

Hardships are blessings that excel 
mankind.
Forged were not swords without the 
forges' fire.
No boat was built without mighty 
trees cut down.
No child was born without labour to 
new life.
Won were not wars without our 
soldiers shot down.

Why curse the Gods for their 
greatest endowment
To mankind , his godhood through 
the gates of hell?
