  Hope was at a loss

  The strong faltered

  Dreams fell at a toss

  The day of no tomorrow

  A day of pure sorrow

  Despair sang the sparrow

  Seven lights raced

  Their streaks marked the sky

  Billions of hearts paced

  Hope cast its dye

  Powerful beings rose

  At the hour of need

  Stopping the raging star’s dose

  An incredulous deed

  Gods they were not

  Immortals they refused

  Seven Guides they chose
