What the Eye Sees Heart Cannot Forget
What the eye sees heart cannot forget
A descending sun
and orange of dusk,
Reflects in the river
with fading twilight,
Is the world conquered
or is it an aura of defeat ?
When moving water
doesn't change direction,
When greens on banks
still dance with breeze,
Birds return to nests
rests the horizon,
Every morning sun
rises in the east.
Pull up veils of night sky
let fears fade in moonlight,
If no stars twinkle,
let glitter those fireflies,
Hold tight the reins
as mind horses run fast,
Treasure in heart
the unforgettable beauty,
The dreamy eyes see
and soul cherishes.
