A Love Song

Through green willows the river slowly flows;
I hear the lad of my heart singing when he rows. 
The east’s in the sunbeam while the west rain-caught;
I’m wondering whether he’ll beam up at me or not.
(tran.)

Hello Charlie Way, I like the way the river slowly flows.A lad sings a song being happy to be on the water.With the sun shining not on him. he wonders if the sun will shine upon him to. A beautiful scene with words.have a nice day my friend.
