Poem[]

"伽南香娑罗树" (1999)
我痴迷
在伽南香的香味里
知道那是一个不忠实的诱���
纵然深深吸入
它依然会随他人而去
但我已痴迷

伽南香从不知有一个自作多情的人类
那只是它与风之间的嬉戏
但我已痴迷

我失迷
在娑罗树的树影里
知道那是个不长久的诱惑
纵然恋恋不舍
它依然会随时光而去
但我已失迷

娑罗树从不知有一个自作多情的人类
那只是它与光之间的嬉戏
但我已失迷

"Fragrant Nirvana Tree" (1999)
I'm infatuated
in the fragrance of this aromatic tree
knowing that its luring won’t be faithful
even though I breathe it deep inside
still it will follow someone else away
but I'm infatuated

Tree of fragrance doesn't even know there is a love-infatuated one
it's just a game between itself and the breeze
but I'm infatuated

I've lost my way
in the shade of the nirvana tree
knowing it is just a momentary luring
and though I cannot bear to let it go
knowing when the time comes it will leave
but I have lost my way

Nirvana tree doesn't even know there is a love-infatuated one
it's just a game between itself and the glimmer
but I've already lost my way[3][4]
