Ocean
Puyam Achou Khumancha *
On a sandy texture of sea I stood
By a sudden gust of wave one feet
At a low speed touched on land from air
Instant thunder storm brought stopless
Like a fallen rainfall of July month
By the waves danced above sea-shore.
One a sandy texture of sea I stood
Surrounded all with a mighty fear
By waves admist the tide wave.
On sandy texture of sea, I stood
Had fallen many birds picking corn my side
With no my wing, I stood on sandy shore.
These all become completely calm
On a sandy texture of seaI stood
Bluntly shouted texture of sea I stood
Bluntly shouted admist the tide-wave
Storm! Storm! Right to fight these
Being born on this human-birth.
