Tears
How can a heart play any more with life, After it has found a woman and known tears? In vain I shut my windows against the moonlight; I have estranged sleep. The flower of her face is growing in the shadow Among warm and rustling leaves.... I see the sunlight on her house, I see her curtains of vermilion silk.... Here is the almond-coloured dawn; And there is dew on the petals of my night flower. Lyric of Korea.
