Beyond the horizon
Where the sun roasts
Flows the sour-sweet waters of...
Beyond the reaches of the eyes
Where the world ends
Ebbs the quiet currents of...
Beyond the last footprints of man
Where no feet crossed returns hither
Grows a mountain of...
Beyond the stretch of the umbilical cords
Where lies lands dark with mortal sorjourns
Lies the mirage of...
Beyond the shadows of life
Where the barriers in shadows be brief
Hangs the garment of...
Beyond the grid of existence
Where birth cycles in broken circuits lies
Estranged and strangled is the hope of...
Beyond the circuits of memories
Where conscience in vagueness hovers
Lie shattered and scattered the stories of...
Beyond the trails of our roamings
Where lies the beautiful ruins of our strength
Parts the mingled colours of...
Beyond our last breathe
Where the light fades for gloom
We stray past the corridors of...
Beyond the pyre and the grave
Where dust communes with dust
Stands aloof, O dreaded foe!
Death.
