It's Still Life

The Weavers c.9

And of this I know.
He is life and
Was meant for a friend

Last,
Longest, but
To be fair, Fates
Gave he and gave he again

Litilla sanda

To friends
Bestowed laughter for laughter
By this friend, he had
Befriended foe

Litilla sanda kömer

The Weavers spoke
To bear
Beware
The snare of laughter

Young, you were once,
Bewildered
Who gave and gave again, and
The Weavers warned

Vitu Lifa
Vitu Lifa
