540 I took my Power in my Hand [Persian translation]

I took my Power in my Hand —

And went against the World —

'Twas not so much as David — had —

But I — was twice as bold —

I aimed by Pebble — but Myself

Was all the one that fell —

Was it Goliath — was too large —

Or was myself — too small?
