Analysis of The River Of The Tears
Appear the signs of happiness
If the guide of the journey
Is sincere and fair
The pain of my life is, and I am
It is a licence of the penalty
To live in such a way
My silent lips that,
Even I had fastened with stitches
But who would stop the eyes
In which flows the river
Of the tears
I do not learn from the pain of waiting
I stay keeping hopes
To meet and see someone
O the lonely poet, do not say
Anything in the empty dome
Echo of your words will be
Just back towards you.
