Thinking of Someone

For you I have stored up an ocean of thought,
Quiet, transparent, bright.
Your arms encircle the city of sleep
Of my far off, beautiful dreams.

A lamp shines faintly through a cresent window.
It is your name, changes to gold and silver silk,
That has wraped me and entangled me
With half a century.

An ocean of thoughts
All stored in that quiet city moat-
The most beautiful language,
Sounds like beautiful flower petals,
That fall and clothe my body with dream.

HSIUNG HUNG (1940)
