For God destroyed his tower of balel
And thousands like him have gone to their dooms
The house will be built when the Master comes.
Today it is different, for at last
Has changed his gait, he goes last
All the forces in the heavens bows
Are harnessed by him and everyone Knows
That wasn't God, but only
Who didn't quite know the infinite Ilan
The world is ours, it is not hemmeo IN

We know what to do, by slips and ny sklps
