My Heart is Mine(Nakago at the Seiryu Shrine)
Once more the doors open
Heavy with a trail of dust.
My faltering eyes wandered wanton
I could not see to see.
What bleakness lies before me,
A monument so hollow?
What soulless streams alongside, trickle
To quench your endless thirst?
Upon your stony eyes I gaze,
Great beast, derelict of heaven!
My bleeding hands raised in prayer
Wavered, I see no reason
To raise my voice to you.
Great stony god, great fate dancing;
My fists in silence clenched as I
With drought in my eyes and
In my lips sterile silence, leave you.
My fate be yours, my heart is mine,
Though you have hurled me off the stars.
Heaven and Earth be against my will,
And poles apart, my love and I;
My meager life is your sporting soil
Upon my faltering veins you dance,
Yet I raise my voice, the heavens echo
Not in praise of you,
But with a cry, as the dead stars listen:
A cry, "My Heart is mine!"
