A Beautiful Island

No man is belonged
A beautiful island 
No sea is surrounded 
Though an island

In my mind it is created
No regime it is governed
The beauty of goodness
The calmness of contemplation 
Kindness of thought grows

No man is belonged
Whole is the kingdom in it
Desire and needs fulfilled 
Dreamless lives of all exist

It is in my mind 
Yet, it does not belong to me
My mind is yours because of it is out of mine
It is not a dream, though I imagine
