You cannot step in the same river twice,
No matter you wish, at least once would suffice.
For the drizzle disappeared, the storms have come by,
Daylight is gone, and the leaves have turned dry ;
Dear,
You did what you could not to stumble down,
But, sometimes, even the king has to give up his crown,
And agree to agree to nod and agree,
But never, but never, to err and flee ;
To tell you the truth,
It could really be tough
And sometimes the road might end up rough.
But, regardless of that if you choose to proceed,
And cowardly not to run away,
Dear, in the end, you shall succeed ;
But remember!
No man can step in the same river twice,
For it is not the same river and he is not the same man.
From mother,
To son.
