1. We laughed at the distant past, and tomorrow
The days will make us the joke of the future

2. Such is this world, a sorcerer's tale
Great, strange in art, creator of wonders

3. Played by the living in the theater of sorrow
And amid the fog of worries, a play of the dead

4. So that those behind the fog may see its seasons
And laugh at it, he who plays what comes

5. Each plays their role while laughing
At others, ridiculed for their unruly role
