Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGH IJKLMMLNO PQRSIMTU VWRXYZA2 B2C2D2E2UF2G2H2I2 J2I have never known | A |
Someone as obedient | B |
And enduring as you | C |
Imprisoned under the clutches | D |
Of Mother Soil | E |
Yet never | F |
A single sigh | G |
Leaped through the air | H |
- | |
You swirl and swing with the wind | I |
And bowed to any kind of storm | J |
You always look up for the rays | K |
Of the Mother Sun | L |
With sheer delight | M |
Praying to give you more light | M |
You catch all the tears from heaven | L |
Even if it will cause | N |
Your fall and death | O |

You are my green curtains | P |
From the probing eyes | Q |
Of passersby | R |
My walls | S |
From the harshness of the wind | I |
Your halos that sparkle in the light | M |
Give comfort against theheat and rain | T |
Clean the air for me to live | U |

In your wide | V |
And uneven trunks | W |
I rest my tired body | R |
The touch felt | X |
Like a hug | Y |
From a mother's | Z |
Loving arms | A2 |
- | |
Now I am old | B2 |
And you are still here | C2 |
Holding my cherished | D2 |
Childhood memories | E2 |
Intact and alive | U |
In your rough barks | F2 |
That bear the prints | G2 |
Of my joys and pains | H2 |
In life | I2 |
