I stepped into a bright world,
Hoping to find life’s meaning.
But the mirror showed me only—
An emptiness shining clear.
The life I once expected,
And the life that now appears—
Two faces of the same dream,
As near as life and death.

Gifted by the one I called my life
One night, the full moon fills me,
Another, the darkest sorrow.
Both are flavors of my life,
Gifted by the one I called my life.

The taste of chang is sweet
The taste of chang is sweet,
The taste of life, bitter.
For every cup I shared with you,
I drank a sorrow deeper.

I bless and curse the moment,
Your voice was a gentle song,
But your touch was sharp with sorrow.
I bless and curse the moment,
When fate brought you to me.

The life I once imagined,
The life I once imagined,
And the life before my eyes—
Like meeting you in daylight,
And losing you by night.

Emptiness shining most clear.
I stepped into a bright world,
Hoping to find life’s meaning.
Now I see only a hollow,
Emptiness shining most clear.
