I will craft melodies for all humanity,
Lyrics for both youth and elderly.
Drafting melodies akin to vanity,
Anytime, they dance for it tenderly.
Not designed to play in sword fights,
Neither for bloodshed nor conflicts.
But chimes that excite human lights,
With upped vitality—plenty of spirits.
Let me compose songs for the weak,
When life is stressful and delirious.
Hearts will steadily release their bleak,
With no fear of losing, seem imperious.
Allow me to sing a song for the youth,
Before they elapse along their way.
Musical displays of devotion and sooth,
Floating by carrying out life's freeway.
For the poor and starving, I'd sing,
When blackness obscures their sight.
Of bright and quiet homes' strings,
A place where there will be no night.
Our planet is tattered and restless,
Needs a clean and powerful melody.
To silence the jangles and zestless,
Of grief, pain, or iffy, cop a remedy.
Lyrics to ease everyone despair,
Until there is no more war or crime.
Alas, man's spirit will grow and care,
Peace may be woven rather than grime.
