Analysis of Unknown Guest
Unknown guest standing at the door
Try to get her a sit,
Whatever is ready at home
Give them to her to eat.
It seems that it has been a long time
She has not eaten a good food,
What a compassionate face, wanting sight
I don't think there is any joy, there.
The heart is deeply scarred
Seeing her gloomy face,
What's the harm in trying
As if she gets some happiness, at least.
(Note: Dedicated to those needy faces.)
