The Young Eland

It was two years after, when they told me
that he was drunk when he said: 

"we fought for freedom so beings could go free"
then he set the young eland free.

The little animal ran out of the palace fence
and happily jumped from road to road 
hoping to find a forest.

But the body guards knew 
they knew that their boss was just drunk
So, when the boss fell down in the cell
and began to snore, they carried him to his bedroom
and ran after the little animal, caught him
and brought him back to his cell

It was then that I fought with my mind
I said: "Who brought you here?

 Who took you away from your family?

 Who sold you? Poor li’le eland,
 now  you wander in the city 
with no close forests and your parents far away.

You only run in the circle of the larger cell in the fence,
 like a blind man taping his path to freedom."
