You Do Not Know

Because my hands

Are bound by limits,

You do not know

(In the Blue Sky)

I fly?

Because my mouth

Is wide with Laughter

And my throat

Is deep with song,

You do not think

I suffer after

I have held my pain

So long?

Because my mouth

Is wide with laughter,

You do not hear

My hear cry?

Because my feet

Are gay with dancing,

You do not know

I die?

(Gay=feeling of cheer)
