When mountains were liquids.
When waters were in the now-mountainous state.
I say, before the sun and the moon exchanged duties,
Of ordinating which period of times state:
I had been a man.

Before construction of the garden of Eden,
Before clouds were known.
I watched all the scenes of flaws in Eden.
I preceded when airs started to blown.

Call me the aged ageless of ages.
What to say?
Rate me timeless historian of histories
A beholder of Oceanus details without bay.

I was existing before the seven-day creation of God.
Yes. Even before the very first day, before the pronouncement of lights.
Behold, I am not He - God.
I only say I have been seeing sights.

Say we are two, I would dispute.
I wonder, do I really exist?
Remind me who was an audience,too.
But, all the details I know, I can't resist.

What hoist me so, you wonder.
Take it to mind, I have not been living forever.
The secret: I have been a patient pages' reader.
I know what is was, what it is, what it has been and what it would be laelae forever.
