1. My world, all evil
Patience and contentment for mankind

2. Gloomy as a starless night
And life I hate when darkened

3. A world of confusing affairs
So reason within it is lost

4. I strove towards it but faltered
So I forgave it and time is more forgiving

5. The noble in it grow frail
And the base become enriched

6. When I aspired to be close to it
It confused me and I wandered even more
