Night Words

Night words are like butter

They melt at the breaking of dawn

I advise you the virtuous!

Never rely on them!

Go to seek for your happiness

Beware of lack of will and laziness

Hearing soft words

Leads to a deep sleep

Once you close your eyes

You see in drams

Were you are drawn

By such suit words

They have the power

Of transforming mounts to valleys

Added to impatience they build

Castles made of sand

So they soon crumble away

Don’t give importance

To what is meaningless

And avoid using a sieve

To draw water, use it

Mother, to sort out matters

Be wise and patient

Even if nights last long

You ought to look for

The end of the string

Know that friends are scarce

Whereas enemies are plentiful

With words everything

Seems to be easy

They let us become merchants

We go up until we reach summit

Then we forget the fall

And we sew pieces to clothes

Which don’t cover big holes.
