My Halcyon Days of Childhood

my halcyon days of childhood
                          alas! i feel as lost ecstatic paradise
                             i played under the azure sky 
                    now in no way memory permits to sacrifice

                           i screamed along with my friends
                       my free heart now lies in grave of time
               flawless sound of words are rusted as an old iron bar 
                      in solitude stepping to the valley of mime

                        Oh! my lovely golden days of childhood
                         will you meet me in my old age again
                          when a new rainbow will smile above 
                         ditto feeling will pass through my vein
