O heart, if you cannot endure the troubles of Love, go away.
There are so many here like you
who simply yell and cry all the time because of Love.
O soul, come only if you are brave.
If you are afraid, it is simply not for you.

Do Not Bother with the Foam (5/8/2022)

When every day infamy spreads over an entire age,
the one who becomes famous is not a courageous man.
If you are looking for a pearl, dive deep into the ocean.
Do not bother with the foam on the shore.
