Syracuse

I wish I could see Syracuse
Easter Island and Kairouan
and the great birds which playfully
glide on a wing against the wind,
 
to see the Babylon gardens,
the palace of the Great Lama,
to muse about Verone's lovers1
atop Fuji Yama mountain,
 
to see the land of morning calm2,
to go cormorant fishing
and get drunk on palm wine
listening to the singing wind.
 
Still, before my youth is worn out,
and before my springtimes are gone
I wish I could see Syracuse
to remember it in Paris.

Oh I know this one! :-)

The palace of the Great Lama (it's the Lama who is great)

before all my young springs are gone..it's ok but hmm...

How do you feel about:
Before my youth is worn out,
before my springtimes are spent (or gone)

Ah I forget you may be trying to match the metre too! :-)

the thing about "springs" is it sounds a bt like her suspension is busted - and we're back on the tape-cul. ;-)
