Resiliently obstinate
Obdurate beast.
Stubbornly stomping on negativity
With an optimist stride
Holding my head up high
With a strongly erected spine
Emanating a humble pride
Pointing my thorny horns
Up to the sky.
Resiliently obstinate
Obdurate beast.
Stubbornly soaring northeast
While I glide
Through the open fields
Rejoicing among the succulent feast
That awaits in the highlands
Hiding inner tranquility
And spiritual divinity.
Resiliently obstinate
Obdurate beast.
Stubbornly well-grounded
Yet genetically bounded to resemble
Peaceful loyalty
To mother earth
And unfaltering allegiance
To my
Peruvian royalty.
