I started the last run
we enroll on ages
all with many years gathered
in front forty-one years
stand
one kilometer a year
just go.
Who does not get to finish
is lost
and does not take the crown.
The road between departure
and the multicolored ribbon
just shout before death:
the latter won
Do not worry
the enemy does not come upon you.
Just finish the marathon
this is required
looser
you are the herald of the winners
hang on a little more
meet your purpose
and shout
at the indifferent listeners:
I have won!
