Whose hands haveCarved these imagesFrom the days of yore
Who has paintedThese pictures fromThe pages of the past
A long journey fromHomo erectusTo homo sapiens
He appears in lightYellow or brownOr red ochre or inShades of greenAway fromThe wilderness
In the jungle ruleNobody is sparedNo mercy, no sympathyEven for nearAnd dear ones
The jungle kingDictates and decidesYour destiny
The length of yourLife is measured byThe elongatingShadow of death
You cannot prolongThe old on theAlter of the young
Let the jungle kingDictateYou are the invincibleSpirit, you haveConquered the worldYou have tamed theMighty riversYou have beatenThe vast seaYou have capturedThe infinite sky
Why do you fearTo stride the earthLike anIndomitable man
