THE ROOT OF PEACE

Yasu Na

We attach great importance

To the difference

In terms of both quantity and quality.

 

The same part of us

Is usually closed.

But this is the root

Of peace.

 

When the sun

Lights all things equally,

The world becomes quiet.

When we look

At the same part of us,

Our minds become quiet.

 

But we must speak about the difference

To survive difficult society.

 

We have generated

Not only power

But also right

By argument

Probably over the difference.

It is quite natural for us

To remove the difference.

 

We are now

Standing in a row

Impartially

At a railroad crossing

Waiting for a long train

To pass.

And the sun

Is lighting the same part

Of us.
