Hey, sweet serene lady
Hanging over there.
Why you oh so pretty
Swinging in the air.
Two metal chains and a wooden plank
What wonderful supporting aids!
That brings her far beyond her bank
Yet she is but a merry maid.
There the red and green grasses
Blends in the surrounding.
And the canopy behind covers
Making you all so outstanding!
You are so peaceful,
You are so innate,
You are so beautiful,
Yet you are but a merry maid.
While looking into those eyes,
One would definitely wonder
What magnificence in her lies?
And who’s that breathtaking creator?
Little she may realize,
What great her creator have made.
She belongs to it till she dies,
Yet she’s but a merry maid
How she is so ignorant,
How she just knows of annihilate.
How her growth, which is rampant,
Bring about the impending death date.
But what can be done?
She knows not the way to recuperate.
What has been done is already done,
And yet she is still only a merry maid.
Oh Peng Ho
