Summary

Vítězslav Hálek The Soul Of A Century — A loveless world (1943)

The heart would roam about the world
⁠’Til grief would end its plight.
’Twould be as sad as it was before
⁠God said, “Let there be Light.”
’Twould be so sad that man alone
⁠Would not want to tread the sod,
And even the Lord in the heavens above
⁠Would not want to be a God.
