Ancestral Visit
Ancestral Visit
Floating the tar
Whirlwinds roar afar
Leaving in its wake
Dusts to their fate
Our ancestors are come
From a beyond, formless
A turn to left and right
Scolding juveniles at night
The stones begin to roar
As frights take to soar
Like flowers will shrink
All faces would shriek
Pray, mercy we ask
Burden not such a task
On generations behind
Ruler ship of the blind
War for preservation
Your heirs race extinction
Dangers siege the homestead
Grant nothing else instead.
