In This Forest of Majestic Beauty
In this forest of majestic beauty
immersed in idyllic serenity,
one can find that total freedom
away from noisy crowds
and rumbling streets.
In this forest of majestic beauty
when sun rays filter through branches
to warm them from the frost of a chilly morning,
the grey sparrows and the yellow warbles
are a delight to hear in spring, in summer and fall
as a venture on this path little known.
In this forest of majestic beauty,
one can hear the flapping of butterflies
and see their sumptuous colors that attract
the unhurriedly, middle-aged horse-rider.
In this forest of majestic beauty
no wind is rough, but gentle and soothing;
come here and spend a pleasant afternoon
sitting by a small pond where fragile frogs
leap out and run, too afraid of the raucous ravens.
