A king in this world, he too, is a man,
And the pauper begging, a man's span.
The wealthy who build, their form a man's plan,
And he who feasts on bounty, a man's clan.

He who, on lightning's branch,
Does build his nest of chance,
His is this life, this age's dance,
He who, on lightning's branch,
Does build his nest of chance,
His is this life, this age's dance,
He who, on lightning's branch,
Does build his nest of chance.

Some boast of virtue, a noble art,
Pride in their heads, of wealth, a beating heart.
Some boast of virtue, a noble art,
Some boast of virtue, a noble art,
Pride in their heads, of wealth, a beating heart,
Pride in their heads, of wealth, a beating heart.

And I say, truth's core, the battle's ground,
He who boasts only, of strength profound.
Oh, he is a man, a warrior bold and sound,
Oh, he is a man, a warrior bold and sound,
His is this life, this age is crowned,
His is this life, this age is crowned.
