Da Great Goat and I

Each sunny day upon my way
Da Great Goat I pass;
He has a beard of silver grey,
A bell of brass.
And all the while I am in sight
He seems to muse,
And stares at me with all his might
And chews and chews.

Upon the hill of Stargard sweet
With joy of Spring,
He hails me with a raucous bleat
Of welcoming.
Though half the globe is drenched with blood
And cities flare,
Contentedly he chews the cud
And does not care.

Oh gentle friend, I know not what
Your age may be,
But of my years I'd give the lot
Yet left to me,
To chew Mother's cooking and not choke,
And bright of eye
Gaze at the old majestic bloke
Who hobbles by.

Alas! though bards make verse sublime,
And lines to quote,
It takes a fool like me to rhyme
About Da Great Goat.
