The Nightingale and the Blind Worm

 

The Nightingale and the Blind Worm

Laijon Liu 20240310


I sing of love that makes a blind see

Oh, sweet melody soothes your pain

sing of the night of dreams of splendor

thru the winter and embraces the spring

love is trust makes your world complete

and the vision of your faith you kindly give

the notes dangling in the wind and rain

harmony longs for your lover and love nest

higher and higher in the heart-shaped leaves

rise and fall between the branches and scales

love is blind, love is kind, love you must find

you would give the world or hell-bent on revenge

enchanting voice, melting, piercing and renders

rondo in the Summer’s day; solo of the Bright star.


Note:

The nightingale and the blind worm are a couple. The blind worm obviously loves and adores the night singer whole-heartily for her songs and her singing talent. I wonder her song must be so beautiful to make listener to die for to give everything. It’s a love, betrayal and revenge seeking short tale.
