<p>Translation:<br>
HISTORY WITHOUT PAGES<br>
Once upon a time in the pages of history;<br>
There existed history without no pages,<br>
Earth was living in the world of mankind;<br>
And Heavens made human without existence.</p>
<p>History as it were was a succulent venom;<br>
Void of poison nor dirt in her wisdom,<br>
It’s iota compelled venomous sagacity;<br>
Ye at her feet is scrumptious creativity.</p>
<p>Alas, there shall be history told without pages,<br>
But how can there be pages without history?</p>
