Christuraj Alex Poet Terzanelle

There Lived a Man

There lived a man, in a village ancient
With sagely wisdom like fire-borne gold
With mountainous virtues he stood patient

To hold on to his beliefs he was bold
Each test of his life he daringly bore
With sagely wisdom like fire-borne gold

Dilemmas, no doubt, troubled his inner core 
Conflicts within and without did torment
Each test of his life he daringly bore

Though to no evil course he did relent
Good seemed bad, vice versa; he was perplexed
Conflicts within and without did torment

When he found in a state morally vexed 
He took hold of the hand of the Lord, lo,
Good seemed bad, vice versa; he was perplexed

With his life, so lonely, like a caged pet
There lived a man, in a village ancient
He took hold of the hand of the Lord, lo,
With mountainous virtues he stood patient
