Write my songs, send my cheers How could one forget? Why the birds chirp, Why the winter sun sets? Though one and done, I have no regrets I, who turned south Who's heart is out west. Willow birds sing my songs Red Tulips cover my heart Moonlight lights my path White Cranes show my past Oh! Dear crimson wine Tell me my sins Any never done? Any repeats? This abyss of thirst Blinds my own dreams Under a lone oak tree No shade for me it seems Dear thin mountain air, Please cool my sweat As I close my eyes I place a final bet When it's all at the end I will have my laugh Family, foe or friend Will have to understand.
A day for these clouds to be under your tippy toes, Air serenading around your waist with ease. Each movement praises the perfection of creation The music is your instrument, half a step higher for your wings. Scent of the roses fill the theater. Peonies, Poppies, Lotuses, All make way for the little swans
Day after day, we till the same fields Yearning for a different tomorrow, we eat the same meals Unable to bear the task, we run from our fears Powerless and weak, we hide from mirrors When will we understand there's no use in tears Drowning in self pity, porn and beers All for naught All such pity Even the learned of old knew Within one's will is strength If ignored this ancient echoes All left in hands in wasted years
