Modernization,
The gift of the elves to Man,
An imminent change.
Summer and autumn,
A transition of seasons,
Beauty to behold.
As a samurai,
I protect those who are weak,
“Aku Soku Zan![1]”
Tardiness is bad,
Do things fast and efficient!
Except when in bed.
No one is perfect,
We are good at certain things,
Except for Cimrman.[2]
