morning birds whistle -
the strength of their reverie
filling heart and sky

oh beautiful moon -
how i wish i could hold you
round and ripe for love
your stare is transfixed
how can we ever escape
your companionship
would we ever live
eclipsed from your brilliance
mystery augers well

ENGLISH TRANSLATION
Are you the blowing wind?
Are you the scattering flower petals too?
Beyond time, praying on something
Have you come to comfort me from sadness?
When the sun sets and the moonlight emerges
I see you over there....
"mystery augers well" -- indeed!!

Birds, who know nothing of our struggles with the pandemic, keep singing. Maybe we should sing along with them. It might help to ease our burdens.
