I have renounced the dull affiliations.

I’m searching for a new adventure.

I shook off my prejudices.

I burned the old novels.

My steps toward the unknown tomorrow are a river

Overcoming the stubborn rock of yesterday.

The gates of the city are behind my back.

I do not turn, and a fierce storm rages.

And I go, then I go, then I go on

To the distant gateway of the soul.
