Honoring the plea from sincere critics to occasionally forsake the logical cave and return to the spiritual delight.
Your booty is not found,
With the wise alone,
For, pearls may be found,
On shores unknown.
Dive when you can,
Into our oceans too,
Lie when you can,
In love’s chamber too.
It has been long,
Your face we have seen,
It has been long,
Your song we have heard.
Paint our hearts,
Faint our senses,
Flood our eyes,
Raise our hairs,
Heal our wounds,
Soothe our pains.
Share again the warmth,
Of winter’s tears,
Care to unveil the secret,
To summer’s cool.
We, the old-fashioned,
Are used,
To see your verses,
Of Him-fused.
We are but,
A folk few,
Yet are your,
Friends true.
Hey Jaihoon!
At times do flee,
Your earthly nest,
At times do forsake,
Your logical cave.
