Minning [English translation]
A lily seeking to meet with the sun
In its morning life, the delight was
torn up unexpectedly from its roots
Nothing since can be found there but stones
In the evening and faintly murmuring
in my ears a dim voice is whispering :
“That life that dies leaves behind
a small gap in the cluster, no more.”
It always helps to
Have in your heart
a bright, sweet loving memory
Grief is only ephemeral
In fear people face up to it
it’s both cold and treacherous
and does not choose any resolution
A lily seeking to meet with the sun
In its morning life, the delight was
torn up unexpectedly from its roots
Nothing since can be found there but stones
It always helps to
Have in your heart
a bright, sweet loving memory
