I once knew you
From the other side
Side where strange women
Carry babies on bare backs;
Backs of noble women
Women among women

I once knew you
From the other side
Where cocks crow at dawn
Dawns which brought laughter
Laughter of innocent children.
Children of gods
Gods with hateless-love

I once knew you
From the other side
Above the mountain side
Where palm-wine is fresher
And the gods are friendly.
