All the peers and I are walking in the vast desert
A caravan of camel headed for a specific destination
Everybody’s walking fast moving like grains of sand blown by the wind
A wind that passed by me leaving me to the pace of the slow time
I see them hundreds of miles ahead waving while grinning with burning gaze
See, you enjoy the vanguard while i bathe in the golden sand of life
I don’t mind you leading the way but don’t belittle my exertion ‘cause the night’s been too long
It’s true we walk the same path, but we’ve emerged from different streets
I still haven\'t recovered from that deceptive oasis that left me more thirsty and lost
I’m catching up whether it’s gonna take me one day or a lifetime
I will say my salutation when we meet again
With all of my glory, I’ll be shining aside the moon in a dark night
Ascending to my throne and underneath me the rivers flow
