...Tales of Secrets...

I.

๏ Korat holds its stories,

our own stories, we all possess,

the mountains harbor no resentment,

that familiar range, greater than all.

๏ Khao Yai shelters human lives,

all creatures dwell in gentle grace,

kindness answered with kindness,

every memory shining clear.

๏ Creatures of every kind gather,

learning together, dancing together,

each phrase inviting reflection,

to carry meaning toward humankind.

๏ O people, always proclaiming,

boasting loudly without end,

yet none escape the self

that colors all through its own eyes.

๏ In truth, it merely speaks of dhamma,

seen through faith and understanding,

nature in its natural simplicity,

what is done well, becomes good.

๏ Humans and animals come together,

to learn without hesitation,

this is the way of dhamma,

sharing the same land in fairness.

II.

๏ Stories told without ever telling,

their meanings carried through words,

Khao Yai and its creatures remind us,

once understood, disturb it not.

๏ The secret known within the world

all beings wander through existence,

humans burn and become ghosts,

animals too, spirits of every kind.

๏ Such is the nature of life,

may we awaken and create goodness,

birth and death belong to all,

so let us live together, my friend.

Birth and death belong to all,

so let us live together, my friend!.
