Master, I can remember,
That was a frowzy evening,
My legs took me,
In the street of Lost Expectations,
But one grand-hearted noble was,
In my mind, even without letting me know,
That was you, my master,
Robbers surrounded me,
I was shaken as a leaf trembled with fear,
I was like a parrot in front of those hawks,
I was like a carrot in front of those wild rabbits,
My books were fallen down
As my teeny hands trembled,
You arose in my sky,
Like an elder brother who comes to save his sister,
Yes, my master,
I can remember,
Did it bruise you,
When they hit with bamboo?
Did you feel pain,
When they drag you along the barbed vines?
My whole world collapsed at my feet,
But what could I do?
With two delicate hands,
Still, I hear the yellings of you,
"Run my lass",
"Escape from these cruels",
I got the energy from those shouts,
But my mind was asking,
"Don't you see back his innocent face",
"Don't you soothe him by rubbing scratches on his chest",
I never met him after that,
Yes, my teacher,
Of course my savior,
I was reborn because of you,
Forgive this lass for torturing you!
