Dream Flying with the Bằng Bird

Dream Flying with the Bằng Bird

Dream flying with Bằng, a giant mythical bird.

Just within a day, soar across the world.

Around sunset, drop by the grassland,

and pick fading strands of sunshine.

Enter the desert at night

to watch stars rising in the sky.

Drink crystal droplets from the land of snow.

Follow the Moon Goddess to her misty abode.

While returning home across the sea, reminisce over cherished memories.

The Past and Present ever rolling… like waves in the sea…
