A man full of love, enthusiasm, and benevolence,
A man who was greatly honored as the King of Nation,

Goodbye Michael
A star has been plucked from the sky.
The sky is now dimmer.
It happened on June 25th.

At night beneath the moonlit milky way;
When I no longer kneel with you and pray,
And swear to you with stern, unshaking pride
That I will never travel far away…
When I my faithful promises betray,
And on the far side of the earth I hide;
When all my words of poetry [...]
