I Knock at Your Door

I knock at your door
Have you heard me?
In certain recent days
My dreams know your presence.
I've seen your eyes looking

I knock at your door

He found the answers in a book
And knew their truth
From the environment’s look.

The rules and the mysteries
Secrets all,

In centuries past he suffered most
From lack of knowledge,
Became a ghost.
