A Thousand-Year Longing
Crunching the frozen ground beneath my feet,
I wade through snow, soft and white, endlessly deep.
The golden sun reflects on this snowy embrace,
And armfuls of joy fill my gaze with grace.
The blue sky, the sun's light, so clear and bright,
Where have the dark clouds vanished from sight?
My eyes cannot hold the brilliance, they shy away,
As the snow’s pure glow kisses them all day.
My eyes meet the snow’s dazzling gleam,
From my chest bursts a pure white dream.
My heart aches softly, time and again,
With a thousand-year longing for life’s domain.
With a thousand-year longing for life’s domain!
