AS THE SPRING WIND BLOWS

 by Moon Taejun 

Translated by Sophie Bowman
 


As the spring wind blows

ripples smile

 

and as the spring wind blows

from a cave a snake emerges

 

and as the spring wind blows

the base-stone is loosened

 

and as the spring wind blows

incurred debts are repaid

new debts made

 

and as the spring wind blows

ghosts loiter

 

and as the spring wind blows

starlight moving away

from the world�s two green eyes.
