They woke up to the peek of the mellow sun Its rays not permitted by the dark ominous skies of the morning drizzle As if the day have still the quality of night Where the shy were shameless, their mirth boisterous Where the bold haggles on the fringes of revolution Until slowly the scalding heat of passions from the night passed And evaporated forming mist and fog and dew. The time held back As they strip the night's cloak Traces of stardust freckled their skin A reminder of the raucous night It was mixed feelings of hatred and love Of loathing and yearning; Of surrender, or of revolution! The foundations of the day slowly cackles As the sun breaks through that thick cloud that hangs above their heads. All the venery and vanity comes alive As the sun takes the cover that hides the depravation The loudness of the roosters' crow in the countryside Were overpowered by the boisterous hum of engines And a people once again facing the grim task of living Silenced are the laughters and grins and joyous singing Repressed are the dancing and carousing Dissolved again are the reveries for the death of the sun!
