Someone like himself, God has created,
He created the man whom He has loved.
Like his image and likeness, God has made him,
Upon the Earth, God granted him leadership.
The Lord did not want to see the man lonely,
He created a life mate for him.
One woman who was his own flesh,
One life mate who would support him.
The first couple was made.
All trees and fruits were given to them,
They could not eat only one in the garden,
If they ate, surely, they would die.
Even so, they preferred to disobey,
The serpent’s advice, they heeded.
Their eyes were opened, and they could see everything.
They got afraid and hid when God was coming.
The Lord was not pleased with this attitude,
He cursed the serpent and its life,
They were expelled from paradise.
They were thrown into the common land.
Now, they will have to work to get food,
They will suffer many pains in their lives.
All of it is because they did not obey God.
And they tasted what was forbidden by the Lord.
