Afraid To Know

Afraid to Know The river smooth-running and Joyfully in the riverbed! looking forward, to the end. More Joyful those banks, they feel, nothing Any great pain, to live a life! Any heavy burden to understand! You always afraid to know! Afraid to be aware of: The essence of light The origin of darkness As well as the secret of the death! Behold come. You who stand there! You are not but a one who walks in front of you, You don't know whence you came from! You don't know where you will be! Knowing where you came from! Knowing where you will be!
