There’s a land that reminds me of my lover,
Of the abundant joy and bliss she brought to me
There’s a land full of green parks and hoppers
From the tents one can hear the waters fall joyfully
There’s a land that floats on the slow-sail river,
Traveling with fallen tree leaves, logs and duck families
There’s a land that harbor all sweet smelling flowers;
The red rose, the tulips, the marigold and the lilies
And there’s a land where the women dance with desire
As they wriggle their gold-laced waist and bring fantasies
There is a land where the brown crabs are the masters,
Where the beach airs grant perfect tranquility
There is a land that welcome both the storm and the thunder
Throwing open arms to both, while she danced with trees
*
Now there is a land where I created and dreamed of in my imaginations
But this land will only live in my mind
