“Your little sisterHas tossed her Untied hair forwardLike a living veil,Like a fragrant hedge,And peers, with such eyes!Through a fragrant veil,Through a dark hedge ...How sweet it is to onlyThink of such little things.Fruits have ripenedOn all the longing branches In your nightly garden,Chinese lanterns like red fruitsSway and illuminateThe longing branchesRustled by the night windIn your little garden ...How sweet it is to onlyThink of such little things.”
