Southern Girl
In the village to the North lives a girl from the South
She like standing at the roadside wearing her flowery dress
She is of few words, but she smiles a serene and relaxed smile
In her fragile gaze- ah, a pain of longing
The rainy winters of Southern towns are not as cold as the North's
She doesn't need big sweaters to hide her pool-like countenance
The shadow and fragrance she leaves in the street bring a sudden pang of heart
The fragrance disperses and the shadow vanishes in the blink of an eye
Southern girl, are you used to to the coolness of the North?
Southern girl, do you like the sincerity of Northern folks?
The days come and pass like those sleepless nights
She chews her gum and speaks of her dreams to the walls
Southern girl, we are restless from this trickling time
Southern girl, did the tall buildings obstruct your soaring hopes?
Yesterday's rain once soaked through her stricken shoulders
And the Polaris of the night has not lended her the muddled directions
In the sun's ray she hung her clothes to dry in her yard
In the seasons' winds she loosened her hair, comforting time's passage
Southern girl, have you fallen in love with the North?
Southern girl, you said today you'll return to your hometown
Longing aches folks' hearts, she beckons the shine of your tears
The fruits of the South have ripened, those are your simple wishes
La....La....
