Beckoning with the hand
The deep forest calls out,
In the tenderness of the leaves
What an illusion is involved.
The murmur of dried leaves
Blow in which tune,
Hijal, tamal, in the shade of shawl
Called away in a remote place.
Curved narrow paths
Merged into an unknown border,
Green forest surrounded by shade
Prate by prying.
The dew of the grass wraps around the feet
Still walking randomly,
The rainbow came and filled my heart
I want to return to her embrace.
