...

I welcome you with open arms,  
  
In this birthday of yours.  
  
You shine on a corrupt world,  
  
But I do not falter.  
  
You are the reminder  
  
Of Ahriman's final spite,  
  
That day will kill the night  
  
And darkness will whimper and bleed.  
  
Rise, and set I suppose,  
  
You have a follower in my heart,  
  
In the promises I made  
  
To my own.  
  
Shine,  
  
May your glory burn the shadows,  
  
Kill the conservative,  
  
Heal this world,  
  
Just as my toes heal.  
  
I bow to the divine decree.
