Chestnut tree transplanted on foreign street,
from chestnut mountain where paved with leaves sheet,
perhaps foreign land yellowed chestnut tree,
perhaps chestnut leaves fell like fainting bee.
Chestnut tree stretched out branches like umbrella,
whose branches in grove blossomed with aroma,
but chestnut blossoms fell on foreign land,
whose petals fluttered like light drifting sand.
Chestnut tree faded like dying flower,
as chestnut root not sipped foreign water,
as though foreign water drank like coffee,
as though domestic water drank like tea.
Perhaps fall leaf fluttered in maze of street,
perhaps chestnut tree dreamed green mountain feet.
