gallant the day with streets paraded,
the sky lashed by the gold of our sun;
while underneath, dots on a clear space
cluster upon as periods on a blank
and dare scale the sky with rusted rooftops
… in the whiteness of day.
gallant the hour when lunch bells ring,
when day is at the zenith of our sun;
while underneath, beggars balance on lines,
pleading for alms while passers simply run
and dare the sky with smiles in their eyes
… in the whiteness of day.
gallant the time
when noon sun burns
the gallant day!
