The Story

time was yellow at that day

like a leaf

and the woman gave birth to betrayal

pure of mother-of-pearl so shown

seven harvesting of grapes have been passed

with cries and shrieks

while seven periods had been overthrown

 

time was walking lame at that day

although it is said to be ****** red

the snake was born at once

waters have withdrawn slowly / lacking fell down

that day

northwestwinds have choked a flame

gracefully in an ambush

and the mill stopped, got down

stopped as if waiting for bunches

of fame,

for dawn

and stopped the mill

which did not sleep for seven days
