Song of a Common Lover
Don't love me,my sweet,
like your Shadow,
for shadows fade at evening.

Nor like a pepper which makes the belly hot for then I couldn't take you when am hungry,

Nor like a pillow,
for we'd be together in the hours of sleep but scarcely meet by day,

Nor like rice,
for once swallowed you think no more of it,

Nor like speeches,
for they quickly vanish,

Nor like honey,
sweet indeed but too common.

Love me like a beautiful dream,
your life at night,
your hope in the day.

Love me like a pieces of money
ever with you on Earth and for the great journey,
a faithful comrade.
