A human being is only flesh and blood dust blooms in the desert human being, like the way of the world, like the passing shadow, like broken pottery Man is only a man, and most his days are nights, and there isn't a perfect man in all degrees, so let him dream and let him breathe, give comfort to Shem, Kham, and Yafet Don't raise your hand to him, give hope and don't judge him always according to his duty, for man is a man that is a man. he's only a man. A human being awakes, already falls asleeps, his days are short, their end is sad, human being is a guest in the world comes from dust and turns to dust. Man is only a man, and most his days are nights, and there isn't a perfect man in all degrees, so let him dream and let him breathe, give comfort to Shem, Kham, and Yafet Don't raise your hand to him, give hope and don't judge him always according to his duty, for man is a man that is a man. he's only a man. He'll never ever learn, he forgets to love he doesn't know that his day is near for... Man is only a man, and most his days are nights, and there isn't a perfect man in all degrees, so let him dream and let him breathe, give comfort to Shem, Kham, and Yafet Don't raise your hand to him, give hope and don't judge him always according to his duty, for man is a man that is a man. he's only a man. (x2) Man is only a man, and most his days are nights, and there isn't a perfect man in all degrees, so let him dream and let him breathe, give comfort to Shem, Kham, and Yafet Don't raise your hand to him, give hope and don't judge him always according to his duty, for man is a man that is a man. he's only a man.
