Read the Old History Books



Read the old history books, my dear,
Where triumphs and sorrows intertwine,
Within the pages, a treasure trove you’ll embrace.
Within their pages, treasures appear—
A wealth of knowledge, a past enshrined.
Triumphs and sorrows interweave with grace,

Discover the burdens that history bears,
Embrace the truths, both bright and grim,
Discover the troubles that burden the soul.
In forgotten tales, humanity shares,
wisdom and wonder in each old hymn.
Do not fear truths, different realities make us whole.

Do not judge by today’s narrow view,
For history’s essence lies in its fray.
History whispers, in truth and tales, soft-spoken.
Feel the echoes of voices true.
Connect with the past, let wisdom display.
Shape the world we live in, let history be unbroken.

As you traverse the passages, time’s grip shall sever,
no boundaries shall constrain, nor borders confine,
Connect with generations, their wisdom amassed,
immersed in the complexity of lives you’ll endeavor.
Within the pages, freedom’s essence shall shine.
Feel the echoes of their voices, profound and vast.
