INTO AUTUMN
The sky has turned into autumn, hasn't
it, my dear?
Why no warm sun to warm blankets, blinds
here?
Without sound the cold breeze is slowly
to blow
With green glare why is there such human
shadow?
What letter are you writing in the moon
so ably?
Please help me achieve one and send it to
Phoebe.
Beyond the ocean there've been devastated
times,
The Milky Way's become cold snow white
climes.
I'm not aware of what's familiar and/or
strange.
Or the air and the land only belong to
your range!
Whenever half the star is bright, half
the star clear,
Then your gaunt autumn black glinting
eyes veer!
Does it seem that when autumn returns
leaves err?
Moving by means of each eye's foot,
hand's finger,
Or of the breath within the domain of
your hair
To walk after me, to follow me without my
flair?
Oh, I have been in a divided mind, got
lost, fit?
You have never mentioned the leaves would
split!
The deer would not come back to the
jungle gray?
The streams deserted, sky and earth swept
away!
I am fatuous, silly? Still drunk you have
grown!
Has love leaven made wine lost and clouds
blown?
The moon has never asked why fall forgets
its style,
Grass and herbs wither, lose their hue,
as in exile!
And then autumn will be absent forever,
always?
The wild woods an infinite sea of frost
and haze,
The birds will no longer sing/twitter on
the hedge,
My vision become blue, I go to the
vagabond edge!
Don't weep for others! Continue to cry;
no bound!
The three thousand worlds will redound,
resound.
Whether your heart feels a biting cold,
do not fear!
Bewail for ever, my dear, you have me
always here!
Even the sky's turned into autumn,
there's no fall?
The fog at various stages is blocking the
alley all.
Your words, noise, voice by the weather
will stray?
There is no autumn sound along my nomadic
way.
