Atuech

 



Light ushers vigour

But hers life and happiness

Brings comfort and content

Comfort that keeps the heart at ease

 

  To her people the morning incandescence

   Voice that makes the birds jealous

   And to every morn a good day wave

   The village hope and swank at bay


Put out your candle 'Atuech' 

For someone with whom life you'll fetch

"still young grandma" ready not for a vow

My light still shine; nuptials just a shadow


    There she is now; lonely shank of grandma

    Only companion her soul, decennial now

    Raddled;confirmation of belle long gone

    No gent to her sight; no more gown


 Somebody call Atuech the princess

Beauty of all sundry

 But pride of inner soul; killer of destiny

 carried off all she deserved


            Taught her the hard way...
