Worthy Man

Be only a man of worth not pride,
Never be insolent or trivial just to be alive.
Strict events are like simplest weapons,
Involve them in your youth and strive
To perfect the age you win and drive so well.
To experience may be a simple thought
Or a wandering in the mist of death,
When is the collapse of wrong talent?
The death is made for you on a reason
From the Lord who reigns on his Throne
Too mighty and wide, never smaller than you.
Be this proud man tonight if you are worthy!
