Like That We Are Born

With our eyes closed,
As if we can sense how horrible is the world we will see

With a cry on our lips
As if we are lamenting coming to a land that is no good

Like that we are born
Me, you, and everyone

With our hands held tight
As if we are prepared to give hard hits, die, or defeat

With wrinkled skin
As if we can foresee for sure
The day in which the cruel old age will come

Like that we are born
Me, you, and everyone

Tied to a body
So that we might know
That man cannot run on his own

Scratching, seeking and trying to find
The milk of a breast
With hunger, eagerness, tears, and thirst

Like that we are born
Me, you, and everyone
