Those who perch on this false world and then go out,
\nThey never speak nor send any news at all;
\nThose on whose graves all sorts of grass and weeds sprout,
\nThey never speak nor send any news at all.<\/p>\n
Some of them have trees that grow beside their graves,
\nSome are covered with weeds that wither in waves:
\nThere lie innocent youths, fair maidens, and braves.
\nThey never speak nor send any news at all.<\/p>\n
In the ground, their tender flesh has turned to dust;
\nBuried in deep silence, their sweet tongues hold fast.
\nCome, mention their names in your prayers–you must.
\nThey never speak nor send any news at all.<\/p>\n
Some died young: never lived beyond life’s threshold;
\nSome wore crowns that their heads could no longer hold.
\nWhen they died, some were six or seven years old.
\nThey never speak nor send any news at all.<\/p>\n
Be they revered teacher or greedy trader,
\nDrinking Death’s nectar came harder and harder,
\nBe they white-bearded or religious leader:
\nThey never speak nor send any news at all.<\/p>\n
Yunus says: “All this is done by Fate alone.”
\nFrom their eyes, all their brows and lashes are gone;
\nTo mark their place there is only a headstone.
\nThey never speak nor send any news at all.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
