the time of believing

Once when I was small

The stories of gins and ghosts

And the gods of nature living

They lived amongst us

Even when you wanted to ease yourself

In the woods or secondary forests..

You should say your forgiveness

In case you hit the passing spirits

If you forgot to ask for blessing

You stepped on them without intention

You would suffer for your foolishness

You would get sick without reason

Medical doctors couldn't explain

They couldn't find any faults with it

You would get sick for days

Until you consulted the medium...

The offering of food and drinks

And prayers to let the spirits let you go

By tomorrow when all these were done

In the morning you felt your spirit soared

The gins and spirits

The ghosts and evil demons

They would come

To tell they are around
