Three Stanzas on the Twisting River
II
What lies before me is not the present nor is it the ancient past,
my long songs swell up and away, grazing[1] forest and wilds,
buildings roof to roof, splendor and power, indeed beyond reckoning.
As for one like me, I willingly let my heart be like ash,
why should my nephew suffer with tears like rain for me?
