Ensnared this heart that did not try to guard,

Ever I have a great pain in my heart that's lost.

You do not want me, Zohrah.

Kazack poem of the Chief Gahuan-Beyg (1850-1885).

KOREA

TEARS

How can a heart play any more with life,

After it has found a woman and known tears?

In vain I shut my windows against the moonlight;

I have estranged sleep.
