Forgotten Tale

I bade thee time and time again, 
For unclenching of the soul. 
A journey long to calm my mind-
And make me rest assured.

Sing to me a wistful tale born from a city far,
Take me on the coursing rivers briskly winding down,
With hidden temples, fountains, and a past not yet discovered,
I yearn to know what secrets grow in places left forgotten.
