The mistake I’m making
O’er and o’er again,
In a crooked road

I’m trying to
Walk straight.

When I laughed,
Sweetly and merrily,
They danced and sang
With me.

When I wept,
None, but my shadow,
To share the sorrow
With me.

An unknown devil
Never troubles me,
A known angel
Often hurts me.

They are slaves who dare not be
In the right with two or three.

What I dreamt,
Happened not.
What happened
I dreamt not.
