If dawn approaches
Thou find thy self with strength and gold
Thou must keep thy head
Let no air steal thy humble's place
By afternoon heat
And thy humble has not yet returned
Thou shalt surely wilt
Feel the power slip from thy grasp
When white eye awakes
Art thou finally humble with grace
If thy nose in stars
Thou shalt never see another day
Explanation:
In the morning
If you notice your popular and rich
You should not brag and show-off
Don't become an air-head instead of a humble person
In the afternoon
And your still not humble
You'll eventually have consequences
You'll lose a lot and never get it back
When night comes
Are you finally humble?
If not, and you're still holding your head too high
You'll never see the important things in life and you'll be stuck in that situation forever.

- I really like comparing it with the explanation! Both versions are quite good, I enjoyed reading them. Great for a first time with old time language! RTF?
