Be thou in highest place or in lowest.
Runn’st thou the swiftest or the slowest.
When autumn leaves fall, when fruit on branch groweth.
When reaper reaps, when sower soweth.
When a bright sun shines, when the flake snoweth.
When a soft breeze wafts, when a storm wind bloweth.
When a goal-drought blights, when the stream new floweth.
But why say I this? Already thou knowest:
I will follow thee wheresoever thou goest.

Notes

I started studying Latin in 2014. An easy text in Latin to read is the Bible, the Vulgate. In Matthew VIII, 19 I found the line: Sequar te quocumque ieris, which became the title of this poem. I hope this one will strike a chord with supporters of any Club, anywhere.
