TECHNOLOGY OF FATE
Highest mountain peak or deepest water body,
TECHNOLOGY OF FATE
Highest mountain peak or deepest water body,
mother's love or father's attention
Subjects to the rule of the omnipotent dictator!
Subjects to the rule of the omnipotent dictator!
No, it's not a nightmare.
Mechanics or Technology by which name shall I call you?
What power the emperor has over everything and all !
Omnipresence dared to be crossed only by Queen variety.
Mechanics or Technology by which name shall I call you?
What power the emperor has over everything and all !
Omnipresence dared to be crossed only by Queen variety.
Yes, this is our world.
Multifariousness, colours fall short to mark thy distinctive figures
The discovered and undiscovered stars of galaxy,
Multifariousness, colours fall short to mark thy distinctive figures
The discovered and undiscovered stars of galaxy,
the visible and invisible bodies,
Does one parallel the other in appearance and matter?
Physique, nature, taste, manner,
Earthlings different from each other,
Unlike the demon of situations who refrains from changes;
Does one parallel the other in appearance and matter?
Physique, nature, taste, manner,
Earthlings different from each other,
Unlike the demon of situations who refrains from changes;
a perennial truth
Weirdest reality friend, Isn't it?
Ha Man!
Caught in the same traps from time immemorial,
That have put their ancestors in trials.
Powerful are the demon's machinery and the robotics,
Weirdest reality friend, Isn't it?
Ha Man!
Caught in the same traps from time immemorial,
That have put their ancestors in trials.
Powerful are the demon's machinery and the robotics,
the chances and the coincidences, patternless,
Like amorphous cloud, powered by Fate,
or shall I say Technology of Fate;
old mousetraps for the developed genes!
The question is were our forefathers were happier than us?
Civilization or life, be cautious.
The powerful army of the twin emperors
Has started the long march.
Kneeling on their knees, the children pray,
Mother Variety, protect thou must,
Like amorphous cloud, powered by Fate,
or shall I say Technology of Fate;
old mousetraps for the developed genes!
The question is were our forefathers were happier than us?
Civilization or life, be cautious.
The powerful army of the twin emperors
Has started the long march.
Kneeling on their knees, the children pray,
Mother Variety, protect thou must,
the flowers of your garden, nonpareil.
