Young Hermit’s Secret

I hide in fog and water, I cross the fire and run through the sky,
The only survivor in the descendants of ninja is me,

My father and brother achieved the missions and died in cruel war,
I was a faithful soldier trained strictly from childhood,

However, I am a quiet hermit and ecological farmer in a mountain now,
I knew with deep sorrow the emptiness of repeating fight for murder,

Surely, father will call me a coward,
Sorry, but I feel the life is holier than honor,

My dear friends are pretty squirrels in the forest,
They give lovely fresh acorns to me in fine morning,

I talk with animals and love wildflowers singing cheerily,
All lives are full of joy, I am unified with Mother Nature,

This peaceful place is a secret not to be found by assassins,
And it is a secret whether I am a man or a woman,

Today, I heard the violent noise of war far away again,
My eyes like a clairvoyant cat see everything in autumn moonlight,
If the world is wrong, I go my way alone.

The Illusionist’s Love

His mysterious smile makes people captive,
The demonic sharp eyes see through all tricks of the world,

He floats in the air and revives the dead under gorgeous spotlight,
This young genius illusionist intoxicates the audience every night,

He was the orphan who did not know the love,
He got fame after severe boyhood with hard study of magic,
And now he trusts nobody,  Nobody understands his mind,

However, his soul has a secret desire for a long time,
He wants to be loved by the innocent woman like an angel,

He longs for only pure everlasting love,
Is it his vain illusion in this muddy selfish world ?

When goddess of fortune gives a merciful answer to him,
His smile becomes gentle like a flower,
The eyes will shine warmly like a child embraced by beloved mother.
