Prime, is the name of Sun god Apollo
His golden crown forever shines in beholder’s sight
Melody and verses praise youth and physique
Gracious light makes his each moment eternal
Sun’s posterity is his fire and light, lasts millions
years
His burning spirit warms revolving planets
He rises and descends, from east to west
Sets up bright days anytime and everywhere
Yes, in my prime time I shall produce bountiful
Before that tyrant Time drag me into wasteland
There old age and chapped lips will handcuff me
And mirage of oasis drive me out of my mind
So now I go through the birth pangs
Lest I’ll be old with a child, that wish I’ve never had
