Two Unborn Dreams

Two Unborn Dreams

I long for the blossoming
Of two unborn dreams.
I wish to fly
From life to death
To change the face and fate of earth
In the world of death.
I wish to fly
From earth-failure to Heaven-triumph
To change the sorrows and pangs of God
In the world of man.


Our Respective Tasks

O Lord Supreme,
Teach my mind
How to sleep without a futile dream.
O Lord Supreme,
Teach my heart
How to regain my ancient dream-
The dream that revealed
You and I are one,
The dream that distributed
Our respective tasks:
You the Monarch of Heaven,
And I the Monarch of Earth.
