No matter how high an arrow may fly
No matter how far an arrow may go
Always remember in its path's end
Even a golden arrow lands on the ground.

Free as the wind, you roam the land
Removing vexes from your heart.
Emerging anew from the past
Mellifluous with many smiles.
Elate my friend, your eyes possess
Lyrics no poet has ever wrote.

I do not know how much you’ve grown
Nor even how tall you now stand.
It has been months since we have met
Talked with each other face to face.
And yet I know you’re doing fine
I’m ever glad just hearing that.
But remember that you should not
Push yourself to the breaking point.

Jet planes and jet lags
Ever miles apart.
Travels distant are
Tormenting my heart.

a blue bird dives on the stream
a fish it caught in its beak.
it repeats the maneuver
soon he does not know hunger.
-the kingfisher.
a brown bird lands on the ground
on shallow streams took a bath.
giving men a joyful sight
had its fun, it takes to flight.
-the chestnut munia
a dainty song overheard
a familiar call from sky.
a pair lands on the window
delighting the lone widow.
-the pied fantail
i pick on scraps by the street
and a peck of farmers' grain.
a nuisance i have become
both to animals and man.
yet i am content to live
among these birds beautiful.
choicest food i cannot taste
yet on scrap i still subsist.
once in my past, life was good
but i met my misfortune.
now i am forced to endure
living life as a sparrow.
-a poor man.

I do not regret the day we met
When all my courage I had mustered.
It makes me smile when I remember
First conversation we had ever.
I walked over to you, nervously
And I seemes to not know how to speak.
But we did have such a pleasant talk
That I forgot to ask for your name.
I do not regret the day we met
You have become to me a good friend.
Each time we talk I smile to myself
Relieved that at last, I know your name.

Trust me friend, I did love you first
Oblivious though you seemed.
Playing with such feelings
Hurt me good and left me
Ever wondering.

I have loved you, and yet
You wouldn't let me know.
The bounds within our love can grow
For my affections be contained.
I did not fail to look in your eyes
Nor did I fail to smile.
I always held your hand
And yet you still wouldn't decide.
Your ambiguity starts to sink
Deep within I get these thoughts.
That perhaps you will not repay
My affections to you bestow.
You look away when I leave
And never waive good bye.
I do not know what that means
But I do not care for now.

You have dealt with me painfully
Is this what will make you happy?
To have my heart broken apart
And have my soul within me dried.
You showed me your beautiful face
You calmed me with your lustrous eyes
You incited within me love
But then you disappeared at once.
Your sweetest words I heard all them
To your gentle voice I listened.
Now you're silent, I am disturbed
When will you let yourself be heard?
You have dealt with me painfully
All I have is melancholy.
This is enough I'll have none more
Of your memories in my heart.

I love you, but I cannot
The gap is great between us.
It's grieving me in my heart
To have you in my mind lost.
The first day that we two met
Was one of my happiest.
My spirits, it jumped in mirth
To have a glimse of your face.
Back then, I've been wondering
What else could we two become?
But the truth keeps reminding
We two as friends, that is all.
I love you, but I cannot
This I ever sacrifice.
If we shall meet in that land
I shall give you loving kiss.
