Masa [English translation]

At the end of the battle

And the fighter was dead, a man came to him

And said to him: "Don't die, I love you so much!"

But the corpse, oh! It kept dying.

Two approached him and repeated to him:

"Don't leave us! Courage! Come back to life!"

But the corpse, oh! It kept dying.

Twenty came to him, hundred, thousand, fivehundred thousand.

Begging: "So much love, and we cannot do anything against death!"

But the corpse, oh! It kept dying.

Millions of individuals circled him

With a common plea: "Stay, brother!"

But the corpse, oh! It kept dying.

Then all the people in the world

Circled him. The corpse saw them, sad, touched:

He got up slowly

Hugged the first human, and started walking.
