Tell Me When You Come

 

Tell me when you come

Should I have to know when

Caused by the time counted

To make the love with no doubt

Let the wind blow and know

how far my way to travel

To search for my lost

No wonder if I am in the love

To make sure of the nature

That my life is a part

Really the love is a question

Asked by all the birds fly

The air of the world is a witness

As long as the love is no in double face

To make the birds sure to fly

To state it is true or not

Tell me when you come

To make sure of wellcome

That never I break the promise

Your love is like a white daffodil

Blooming on the hills near by

To make my life be happy always

Be sure of me

As one word or more than to urge

To search for the missing flower whom I love

Never it shows her reason to fly away

Because she is in the love

That this world belongs to us

Which may not be forgotten

all days and nights sound to remind

My love will come and bloom in twilight

Before my body be put in the silent land

 

My Love Looks Like Pearl

 

My love never fades away

It looks like pearl

Since the love never goes away

Who knows it comes again and again

Which never be in double faced

What I think is true

Before the sun comes down

As the world of mine reminds

That's true love known by

If you think it is not the love

Better ask the neighbour near by

The love is never in double faced

Since my born till today

No wonder if you ask many times

As far as I say it looks like moonlight

Under the trees beneath the hills

Which makes no doubt on the road

You walk down every day and night

I let you know how blooming the love

found in the lives

No matter if you come again and again

Before thy life comes into the silent land

My smile is in your heart

Which may not be separated

Think too much before the sun comes down

To think how my love looks like pearl

 

Never Turn My Face Back

 

Why do you turn your face back

When you come to stand in front of me

While the wind blows never looks like that

You are really in the heart of mine

 

And I am in the love

Really a nice word addressed to you

I used to retell this to the wind

And the sun merely smiles

 

To give lighting for my love

But no matter how you disappointed me

Your love is like a blooming rose in the lives

No one knows except the wind

Who makes me sure for the love

 

Keep this as a memory

I should keep it up as a sign to acknowledge

That the love whispered by the wind

Is a real love with full of purification

Coming from the bottom of the sea

 

What Else Should I Do?

 

Never I wash my hand to accept

When you deliver a word of love

I used to keep in mind

Though I am in trouble some

 

But I delay my time to see around

Since the love promised

will be a sparkling light

To enlighten all thy hope

 

From the beginning it makes bright

No wonder if it looks like sunlight

The east seems to smile

When it is on the top of the hills
