It is time to fetch the water….
Bring solace to our thirsty hearts,
Watch the fountain flow in spring.
Even in hard times, don’t grudge the water’s
Chance to fill the cup.
White marbled stone polished smooth,
Bronze turtles guarding corners,
Standing at the juncture of the road.
Soon surround with flowering plants,
Quiet songs in summer sing,
Strange power springing through the rock,
Refreshing as we walk past.
