My Friend
O my English friend,
Smile.
Let me see your smiling face.
O my Canadian friend,
Dare.
Let me see your daring heart.
O my Indian friend,
Think.
Let me see your thinking mind.
O my American friend,
Rest.
Let me see your resting life.
O my other friends,
I think of you, too.
I love you, too.
I adore you, too.
