How beautiful it was
When I beheld the cool
Morning breeze singing,

For my soul thought he
Heard a rhythmic
Thumping from the market,

But it was my heart
Applauding the prospect
Of an unexpected fellowship with
The untouchable rose flower,

Here are my
One-night-stand rules,
For I remembered the passion
When I forgot the sweetness,

But wait and let her listen
To my wailing heart full of love breath
That stretches up to the stars with
Leaves that have never been shed,

Ah, my only falling rain,
The mother of many nations,
The beauty that remains prosperous,

The starling shall not cease
To express my sincere whims to
Imprison thee in my heavy heart.
