Full of darkness and far from home
No one around and feeling lone,
Why was I tempted late
My lonely feeling is not being articulate?
There is darkness everywhere
Is a menacing waiting there,
Swiftly the shadow of night is falling
Is a death spirit calling?
My sister asks why she is tempted to tarry
An evil spirit may smite her fast
My mother will cry and my family will murmur
May a thunder crust her?
Mom your weeping eyes bleeds out lovely tears
No life after death is what one fears
Not to waste tears crying too valueless to those
Isn’ beautiful of sorrow like a thorny rose
