Poems from the province of Japan

My eye is caught for a while by a wild flower
It's gorgeous and beautiful
No princess of any country
Appears as pure as this flower.

A bird is flying in the sky
Nurtured in the hand of God
It sings its freedom and praises to God
Even soprano singers listen to it.

Graces shown daily are limitless
A poor woman that I am
Today too has come and gone without mishaps
Gratitude to God seeps deeply into my being.

(original in Japanese)
