Goodbye

I wish I could look at your face again
But how do I with my eyes mustering 
Tears which soon break down the cheeks
My mouth lame I can't say the word

The memories are all I have left
Times we shared in gloom and bliss
Those laughter hurt and frowns
They are all coming back at me

When you get to the land beyond
Reach for my mother and tell her
I see her in my dreams when I sleep
Tell her she left her daughter too soon

The years have come and gone 
I thought I would find another like her
none alive matched her role and place
Her cord was the toughest bond

While these eyes drain it's tears
And heart is down under the grief
Look down from above and smile on me
My lips fret to mutter goodbye.

Magún (Thunderbolt)

To the men who will not stay

Dangling their third legs about

With inordinate quest and urge

Written all over their loins


Folks laugh and called it a myth

Some said it's a scare for real men

Others dread it at it's mention

Everybody wondered what it is


It is no disease neither an ailment

To dwell in the body of a lady

Placed on a her like a spell

Most of whom may not even know


Perhaps she was smelt to lay about

And all have failed to deter her

Her infidelity on everyone's lips

Soon fate will stare at her in the face


Woe to the men who came to her

In defiance to eat from her table

Doom as they licked their fingers

Falling down at her feet thereafter
