I live without faith,
I hope and do not need!
My spirit is anxious, native
Life has given joy.
Faith gave me life does not,
I sought God everywhere,
Duma anxiously awaited,
Mind murmured rebelliously.
I have no hope anywhere,
Gore pre-visits and ó:
In pure water mirror
Alien she can not find.
ABOUT, I keep both peace
the world's best consolation…
I live without faith,
I hope and do not need!
