World Has its Whisper of Joy

I heard that you are a new Irish bagpipe,

the sound comes from the distant morning;

I heard that you are the lake that is undulating at night,

can remain moonlight in yesterday;

I heard that you are the light that leaks from wings' of 

a white gull when it leaves the beach,

just stay for a moment and then disappear;

I heard that you are a pale shell covered with sand, 

sleeping on shore waiting for people to pick.

 

Thus I migrated with the ocean,

Asked a transparent whale. Has it seen you?

It says that the water that reflects your figure will have a fine wave;

Thus I wandered with the haze,

Asked a red-billed raven. Has it seen you?

It says that the sunset that shines on your side face will slightly ripple.

​You are wearing the nihility,

Stirring four seasons.

Clouds pass over my hair,

I can't figure out the surge of waves and your back.

Rain slips to my ears,

I look at puzzles of the mist and your eyes.

Reciting all stories in silence,

but I still don't know.

Because there are mountains and seas in my heart,

Kiss,

like drinking a gale.
