I Sang a Chant

Though inexperienced, I had to sing it to shun misery;

Alone on the pastures and no one in sight;

Herds of camels cannot render my lines wrong or right;

Towards the climax, I eyed a shepherd in a reverie.

I chanted still until late at night;

Suddenly, I uttered some lines with a lisp, drowsy and weary;

To the herds' dismay, the defect roused the shepherd, ready to fight.

The herd and I instantly ran hurriedly like accomplices towards the ferry.
