VERSE 2
Maybe I?ll drink your jasmine tea then I?ll hurry home.
Surely you know the likes of me should be left alone.
Why they like a me for, soon enough the world will end
If I answer the door.

VERSE 3
Look at the tall pagoda through, through your window pane.
watching you fly your dragon kite on a cocoa day.
You?ve discovered the white orchids in my humble moon
while the lantern is bright.
