______ Walking with Love Thirty-Four

Jiangnan, Jiangbei—countless passersby; who walks the same road with me? Unless you ask the yellow oriole, its hundred warbles no one can understand; why rush away, flying past the roses on the wind? Truly clueless bird, not a shred of manners!

The river water glows, light and shadow flowing; the east wind silently changes the years. Before my eyes, specks of poplar catkins drift, scattering spring colors to the ends of the earth. My thoughts drift, my heart thinking of the afflicted families in Xishu.

Along the long and short pavilions, how can I bear the petals flying, making the evening? If it's not spring, why does my feeling resemble fragrant grass, gradually growing, fading, endless? Only because the matter is too unbearable, my myriad misfortunes...

Beyond the setting sun, the place of sorrow; flowing water, fallen flowers—spring has gone. Gazing from the high tower until sight fails, the sky already dark, dusk drawing near, a lone goose hurries homeward. As evening comes, the air turns cool, the lights already dim—where shall I be tonight?

The bright moon rises, the bright moon shines; as the moon rises and shines, its light fills the library tower. The people upstairs think, worry, and grieve. Myriad compatriots lack a home—how can one set their mind at ease in such a situation?

I entrust my sorrowful heart to the bright moon; I am in Jiangnan, my heart in Shu.

Picking mulberry, a lone shadow wanders alone on the path; the moonlight is unfeeling, yet people are affectionate; the moonlight fills the sky, cool as water—I, utterly sleepless, plan to raise funds again, expressing love.

Love is abounding in kindness, treating others as oneself, delighting in goodness and generosity; love is long-suffering patience, willing to endure labor and hardship; love seeks no personal gain, sacrifices self to help others, doing all one can.

(My heart tied to the disaster area, my feelings tied to the disaster area, I use a sincere heart to pray to the gods: May safety, courage, faith, strength accompany and be with the people of the disaster area!)\
