That World Unlike Another World
That world unlike another world,
where one can dream and see
how it thrills a curious mind
charmed by the resplendent sea:
it's your own drowning in glee!
That's my world never deprived of light
which doesn't hesitate to dissipate shadows
that conflict with the inner brilliance
of the noblest soul seeking the purpose
of his living relying on a solid hope
more realistic than an ordinary day
that is pleasantly seen in the earliest
gleams of a sunrise whenever he would grope
for dreams fleeing from a night so dreary!
If one can confirm the stages of his fate
however crucial or challenging they may seem,
he has perceived the vision of his mission;
don't ever challenge destiny and modify its course
with unrequired anger that will increase exasperation,
accept what it asks of you and fully partake
of tears, of joys, of triumphs, and of faults to redeem...
but discard the horrible deeds too demeaning to endorse!
Glory is not achieved without persistence
and the belief of the opposite forces that suppress
may prevail and discourage one to proceed with haste;
no road is easy to travel anytime avoiding stepping stones,
they always are there to reveal a path so terse
that prevents a deserving individual to obtain greatness.
Never hop rashly on a fast and neighing horse
to minimize the unexpected danger and distance:
that world unlike another world is too distant and forbidden!
