Back to the old forest/ Wishing for clouds to cover and rain to cool the forest

Back to the old forest
I wish the clouds would cover the forest and rain would cool it down.
human eyes and leaf eyes filled with tears
Missing someone who used to be here

The forest still has leaves on the trees.
We still have this forest intact.
The time when the hammock swayed
The time of youth on enemy bombs

The leaves rustle like a lullaby.
I am still attached to the windy war zone
Look at the tree's shadow leaning across
The shadow seems to lean over my shadow.

How many people went to war?
My friend lies with his friend here
Lying down at night listening to the leaves flying in the forest
Looking back to my motherland, the clouds part and call out.

The forest is silent, the land is silent
My feet step by step search for my shadow
Green moss tightens the old tree roots
Pick up the afternoon call grass flowers also afternoon

Why does the earth not say a thing?
The price of the forest can penetrate the hearts of many people
I lift each falling leaf
Light up the green forest with fire.
