Before meeting you, I have often a dream:
There lives a girl beautiful like spring moonlight
Her enchanting eyes reflect shades of wild palm trees
Not saying a word, she looks lovingly into me...
The poem of fortunate encounter has changed hands.
O what dream’s better than this dream.
Your powdered scent, floating with fragrances of summers past,
brings loving wishes and delight into my heart.
Like a gentle trail of cloud, you suddenly arrive.
Scents of mount’n forests about your eyelashes and smile.
Feelings of the heart, revealed and hidden in shyness.
“Having seen each other for some time, do tell me, my dearest.”
Where do you want the two of us to share our dreams?
Love pledges under starlight and moonbeams,
Heart-to-heart chats by the pakalana vine,
Or from the lane of oleander trees,
a path to poetry-inspiring sights.
O the scent of flowers... her silky hair
Some night, when the dreams of life lie threadly bare.
O Wind, please carry my heart’s vow to Heaven
Wish that we’d forever be husband and wife.
