Eight Winds.
-eight winds come to break u-
..lead your mind astray...
-praise and blame deflate u-
..(but) light carries them away..
-fame and defamation-
..each follows one behind..
-famous for the moment-
..what's left of your mind..?
-gain and loss defeat u-
..both are just the same..
-sanity come to meet u-
..u never knew her name..
-where u going on the morrow?-
..where were u today..?
-recognize joy and sorrow-
..both have something to say..
-four winds come to greet u-
..lead u on your way..
-four more can defeat u-
..blow your soul away..
