Flowing river’s beating drums
Open up all of mind’s doors 
Overwhelming internal spurts 
Give rise to verses of sentimental words

Big and small rocks in the river 
Show foundations of natural graceful water structures 
Snowy foam on surface of water 
Resembles glossy silvery stirring pinnacles

Golden rays of mid afternoon sun
Sparkle nearby vegetation
Bushes appearing near rocks of the stream 
Bring back lotus floras' elapsed reminiscence

Colorful butterflies and bees
Enjoy the season’s remaining flower glees
Leaping grasshoppers startle
Showing unique splashes of brilliantly colored wings 

Softly blowing wind’s gust
Cuddles the body with its tender touch
Melodies of brook’s sweet jingles
Lulls the mind, helps enjoy the concert

Liveliness at the banks of the river 
Show dynamism of nature’s life-force
Jovial mind becomes ecstatic 
Spreads out its vibrant expressive feathers
