He is the joker
in the Ajuba circus,
The world loves him madly
for his tricks and funny gestures.
Appearing like a fool
in front of his audience is his profession,
Still the world admires him
as a real masterpiece.
His audience knows him as a
Skilled funny skeleton,
who knows that
he wets his pillow at every midnight.
The face behind the mask
hides every pains and scars,
No one knows that
he is the lonely father of a dead daughter.
