Veiled faces, hidden and revealed,
A dance of shadows, life concealed.
She pirouettes, she flees the chase,
A sum of joys, a shadowed space.
She builds, she breaks, a paradox,
A tempting glance, a hidden box.
Veiled faces, hidden and revealed.

She dances, she commands the stage,
She runs, she shapes another age.
A sum of joys, a shadowed space,
She builds, she breaks, a paradox,
A tempting glance, a hidden box.
Veiled faces, hidden and revealed.

Oh father, a challenge I must face,
A hurdle set, a bitter taste.
Do not remarry, I implore,
Do not destroy me anymore.
She weeps, she makes the tear-ducts flow,
Woman brings struggles, as we all know.
She brightens homes with tiny feet,
Sings lullabies, and makes life sweet.
A sum of joys, a shadowed space,
She builds, she breaks, a paradox,
A tempting glance, a hidden box.
Veiled faces, hidden and revealed.

No grandson, what can I now do?
Better to die than see it through.
The first one drove me to despair,
The second coming, more to bear.
She feeds us chicken, roasted brown,
Transforms the men who wear the crown.
She makes dreams real, a vibrant art,
She carries on the beating heart.
A sum of joys, a shadowed space,
She builds, she breaks, a paradox,
A tempting glance, a hidden box.
Veiled faces, hidden and revealed.
She pirouettes, she flees the chase.
