//A child was I,
who "lived" her life.
Did laugh from heart,
did love from heart,
did cry from heart,
did rejoice with heart.

A child was I,
who "lived" her life.
Did fear of dark nights,
did fear of insects,
did fear of reproaches,
did fear of falling,
did fear of being wounded,
did fear of being slow in school,
did fear of things so trivial as such.

Thence, I grew,
blind...
