1. Destiny denied me peace in abundance,
And so I missed the chance to prove myself.

2. Oh Lord, a day will come that seems
Like evening, with the horizon far away.

3. I took shelter from the heat in a house
That felt like the chests of my enemies.

4. Violence softened its claws around me
And nearly died from the disease of echo.

5. We hoped for rain but met with lightning,
Fear of its wetness kept us away.
