Tribute to W.E.Henley

Out of the night which covers me
Black as the pit from pole to pole.
I thank whatever Gods there be.
For my unconquerable soul.

Invictus. W.E.Henley 1849 -1903

A glosa

Out of the night that covers me.
I shall emerge into sunlight
The darkness holds no fears for me.
My goddess will preserve my sight.

Black as the pit from pole to pole
but I care not why should I fear
As I step out towards my goal.
Each pace I take brings it more near.

I thank whatever Gods there be
who reinforce my attitude.
I know they are protecting me.
I offer them my gratitude.

For my unconquerable soul.
I fear no foe no enemy
I have already paid the toll
the price which was required of me.
