Black is a mourning color;
Black denotes melancholy;
Wisdom in shadow is black!
In darkness of court truth lights
To bring justice in sight ever!
Brilliance of wisdom is in black;
Lest its light would hurt eyes
Says Milton in Il Pensareso poem,
Counterpart of mirthfulness,
L'allegro!
Classical stories of wisdom he
Studies in the light of dark nights
Perhaps best time to study deep!
Now black has become fashion
For dress of youths to wear ever!
