Far From Reach of the Waves

Far from reach of the waves I constructed a place of pearls Huge, Beautiful and colorful Outer layers from the white ones While the inner has many colors Best among them are the black ones Seven in number, constituting a circle A perfect one, like a rainbow with its reflection in a blue lake Hidden from the Eyes like a pearl in the body of an oyster It stands tall and strong on the land A palace of my own thoughts I walk on the soft sand And measure the length To which the cruel waves of the Sea can reach Because of fear that they will destroy my castle Wish you visit it before the waters make it theirs And help me take it to a secure sight (Paghunda)
