Hamilton (Hamilton) (№ 369295)

How an illegitimate child, orphan,
Son of a whore and a Scotsman
By the will of fate got
In the most forgotten places of the Caribbean Islands,
In poverty and dirt,
Grew up and became a hero and a scholar?
How does a bastard, orphan,
Son of a whore and a Scotsman,
Dropped in the middle of
A forgotten spot in the Caribbean by providence,
Impoverished, in squalor,
Grow up to be a hero and a scholar?
