Hiraeth

 

For my years away from home

To settle down the pilgrimage

To bloom like a hyacinth

In one big breath

 

My heart is prepared to go home

Step one foot onto the terrace

For I have been caught by my mother’s eye

Who greeted me with a big smile

 

My memories burst along with the dust

Under the moonlight

Singing the hymn, reminiscent

That I can finally place myself in her seat
