The Kopa’s Homecoming

Yesterday we left

To fight your curse; a course

That long had been defeated

‘Twas your clarion noise

That commoners dare not defy

 

Now are we returned

From toiling your futile errand

Like soldiers retired home

From an expired war; a barren crusade

That long had lost its taste

 

We’re back; aye! we’ve been returned

From your glorified servitude

And cheers of your notorious labour

From being plagued afore the scorching sun

And the pounding rain that never cease

 

We’re back; aye! we’re back

To un-pause the life left behind

To continue our narrative existence

We’re back; aye! We’re back

As though we never did leave.
