When shall the time begin
When there's nothing left but sin
When the universe comes to a swoon
And the Beast speaks to man, come noon
When shall the time begin
When one ransoms kith and kin
When Allah's Messenger will descend
And when mountains crumble down as sand
When shall the time begin
When man seems drunk, as if boozed with gin
When Beings crawl out to run
And when from west rises the sun
When shall the time begin
When smoke blends with wind
When the fetus from the womb leaps out
And when the angel does siren aloud
Alas, the time has not begun
Now..... what pious deeds got done.
