Let be, for joy let wander
As much as through a thoughtless state

If my body can't be healed to hike on towering mountains, 
Then just make my soul wander across the heavens,

the further west I wander,
how many more sunsets
shall illuminate my own visage
until I see yours?

Through my wonder I wander and  become pained
and rover subtly these days 
Time polishes my brain,
Wisdom lies in the grave
