Voz

A man differs from a beast in that he speaks.
Animals merely roar, call and screech;
But a man can tell tales of the highest peaks
Sing the songs to many hearts' reach.

Express innate soul in stanzas and verse
And birth change in empowered pitch.
So today we celebrate newly given voice
For the people given humanity in speech.

Hopefully the nations will stop being beasts
And decide fate with voz and not garras.
