what makes heroic strife, famed afar, famed afar?
what makes heroic strife famed afar?
what makes heroic strife?
to whet th' assassin's knife,
or hunt a parent's life, wi' bluidy war?
then let your schemes alone, in the state, in the state,
then let your schemes alone in the state.
then let your schemes alone,
adore the rising sun,
and leave a man undone, to his fate.
