Love

Beneath the Majnun tree, two butterflies

Flutter delicate wings, chasing one another.

In a single day, these two beings hide

Feelings that would last a lifetime.

Dawn breaks, the sun scatters light upon the earth—

Perhaps it too searches for a lonely companion.

The moon, hiding in the bosom of night,

Perhaps seeks love from the stars.

Rain falls drop by drop from the sky—

Perhaps it too suffers the torment of love.

Under an umbrella, a solitary young man,

That girl… her smile… Lost in a whirlpool of thoughts.

With a beautiful smile upon her lips,

That “moon” whose eyes wandered among the stars—

Little did the playful young man know,

He had already found a place in her heart.
