Sudden downpour, an early event
At that time, when the clime was mysterious
Occurrences at the unearthly hours
Timeless trouble that man carries within
Like an unknown burden
In certain ancient moment they entered
Affright with the transformations of time
Fleeing has been a failure, a fault still repeated
At this time, the apprehensions crawl out
Hiding in the mind, in nature, and wild
Only reflections of freedom in the vast sky
Downcast conditions deprive that too
A struggle with half-submerged optimism
Some frightful images are never erased
They appear stubbornly through the ages
Foul weather prevails over the dreams
