Not moved by sweet soothing a melody or rhythm 
Is prey for bad thoughts and selfishness...

At last I said "I'm sorry my friend"
And to the beautiful Maple, put and end....

It may be winter outside

Her stinginess generates a real freeze....

She doesn’t remember that
The one she desires 
Is just one fistful of bones.
Bones that come out of the crematorium
In just five minutes...

Let me find an enemy, so as to know true amity.

We've been always sharing selfishness,
But let's make our way towards selflessness....

An 
ambitious man 
may
achieve his goals

but 

his soul will not benefit 
if
selfishness is, his prime

in his utter selfishness
would her love for him wane

if she discerned his mysterious self
hidden away quite nicely
would she take love and run?...
