Who walks beside? Whose heart entwined?
A fool's companion, where do you find?
A fool's embrace, a fleeting guise,
Turn from the path before your eyes.
Alter the course, the ancient ways,
A fool's companion in life's maze.
A fool's companion, where do you find?
The flower's scent, a hidden sting,
Who trusts the bloom, what sorrow bring?
Better the wild, untouched by pain,
Than gardens built on shifting sand.
Deceit's arrow, love's pretense,
A fool's companion's recompense.
A fool's companion, where do you find?
You sought for joy, a shadowed chase,
Through every road, a tear-stained face.
In sorrow's realm, a different plea,
Perhaps a glimpse of ecstasy.
Victory springs from loss revealed,
A fool's companion, your fate concealed.
A fool's companion, where do you find?
