In the cage of the world
Be merciful in what the Lord has commanded you.

Love has sentenced me to love and play
And I still sing to my dreams and disguise myself
I rebelled, so the world rose and did not sit
I am innocent and searching for my truth
So time came to bear witness against me
I did not doubt that it would get bored with me
For I am accused of wasting time unintentionally
And retribution pursues me no matter how much I beg
In front of the sidewalk, I woke up and screamed
It is the time that erased the letters of the sentences of my life
When it cut the feathers of my freedom’s wing
I did not glorify it nor did I hate it
Because it is like the passion that my chest breathes with
And it is like the blood in my veins that does not stop
It is that book that contains my memories
I did not delete its pages nor did I learn from it
And I had nothing but that I preserved it
It is my destiny, no matter how long time has abandoned me, like my luck
My time will be happy with it, even if I complain about it
I lived with it and I am still waiting for relief
All my hopes are to live with it as I wish
I do not regret it, and I did not spoil it
In My time, why don't you listen to my suffering?
Why do you wrong my tolerance with the stab?
I am the one who came to you as a boy playing with dolls
And I am the one who left him in the world of recklessness
And from the door of guidance to its door a garden
Because I did not leave the shadow of the space of your borders
And I did not take a path except according to your opinion
And here I am free and not bound, but in your hands
Because you are my master and I did not deviate from you
I fear that you will be angry with me if I go astray
And I have no life before you or after me
So have mercy on what the Lord has commanded you
For who has mercy on the creatures of his earth
He who has the kingdom of heaven will have mercy on him
