Analysis of My Girl in Every Mourning Wind



At that time,
on a quiet night,
waves roll softly.

My girl! In every mourning wind,
the storm seemed calm in my soul.

In a bright star,
am I standing firm like you?
give the splendor alone and watch.

Eternal eyelids open,
like natural patience,
who sleeps in glory,
and the name love.
