In childhood, in its pure splendour,
your being protected by a veil of candour,
beauty and freedom clothed your gait,
you ran free without hesitation.
You were unaware that soon the innocence that enveloped you
that innocence that enveloped you,
the harsh truth would come to you,
showing the harshness that is here.
You walked along paths of illusion,
today you face the harsh reality with tenacity,
but in your soul still shines that purity,
