This is the path i chose

Whom the gods wish to destroy, they first call promising.
Whom the public wish to see rise,they first give them a hard time.

So what if i stumbled on staggered stony path,
So what if i went so far away, i inculcated his raging wrath.
the path has stones, i knew of this, for this is the path i chose.

So what if all the way my feet shall bleed and i shall be alone.
So what if the road is paved with hurt and pain and sufferings in every stone.
The path has stones, i knew of this, for this is the path i chose.

So what if life is not the grandeur and pomp i dreamed,
So what if life is a wonderful wonderful gift, to me it seemed.
The path has stones, i knew of this, for this is the path i chose.

So what if too hard and long, my journey takes me through,
So what if all throughout my food is ale and brew,
The path has stones, i knew of this, for this is the path i chose.

So what if i were to complain, and crib about my life,
So what if i were to pray to god for just one single day without strife.
So what if i requested Him to ease it on my wife.

The path has stones, i knew of this, for this is the path i chose...
