The troubles alone I feel, the victory together we share
For only one can feel the pain, and the discomfort it brings
Should I cry? Should I whine?
For am not sure how long I have gone

Is it three? Is it four?
Only time will have to tell
For nine is still a long way to go
Should I cry? Should I rejoice?
For the decision I made I stand.

My soul is still intact I believe
Ripping it again I couldn't afford
For denying a life is too inhumane to bear
Should I cry? Should I rejoice?
For the joy after nine is worth the pain.

Under the mango tree, the breeze is cool
While the ground is warm, the sky is orange
The eyes are bright, Yet the heart is in pain
Happiness is gone, watching you set

To embark on my journey I must
To my nest I shall go
To face the horrors of the night I must endure
As I have to pay for the mischief of today

I await my dear with all my hope
To bring me new tidings and new hope
As I watch you rise my sunshine
With all my joy for the day
