Seduction
Whither goeth he, the fragrance that drives the breeze?
He cometh thither to embrace the wind that surpasses
He cometh to seduce the radiant beauty of the moon
To comfort in his arms those clouds that abide by her
To soak the silence that wafts through time
To color mine earth’s soil to his heart’s shade
Thou traitor, thou hast seduced mine soul
Captureth he the sparkle in mine eyes
Whence the rose shedeth her thorns
Smiling at the soars on fate’s wings
With all his might that swatheth mine life
That sheatheth, preserveth mine force
In the only comfort of his arms
