Uprooting the trees of sorrow from your courtyard,
And planting them within my own,
Look now, how they have bloomed
With the beautiful flowers of happiness!
Now, you tell me—
Will you come to pluck these flowers away,
Or will you bring some more trees of sorrow
From your courtyard to give me as a gift…?
Awaiting your answer…….
Yours,
Me
