Sampan |
| The sun is high, looking out I see |
| The emptiness beyond the jetty |
| Seagulls raining like confetti |
| On the Water |
| Sea and sky come together in |
| A hazy kiss out on the ocean |
| Europe seems a foreign notion |
| Hardly thought of |
| And would you leave your modern world behind? |
| I know who I am |
| Riding in my sampan |
| In the shade stands the foreman in |
| A floppy hat and linen suit |
| Beneath his ancient leather boot |
| The ground is straining |
| Far away, figures bend to tap the |
| Endless seas of rubber trees |
| To coat the wheels of Paris taxis |
| Where it’s raining |
| And would you leave your melting world behind? |
| I know who I am |
| Riding in my sampan |
