The Hong Kong Adventures of Arielle Gabriel

Song of Snow White Heads

Our love was pure
As the snow on the mountains:
White as a moon
Between the clouds —
They're telling me
Your thoughts are double:
That's why I've come
To break it off.
To-day we'll drink
A cup of wine.
To-morrow we'll part
Beside the Canal:
Walking about,
Beside the Canal,
Where its branches divide
East and west.
Alas and alas,
And again alas.
