-- TO MY FRIENDS --
To sincerely and earnestly chant
for the happiness of our friends
and for our voices to resonate
and for our voices to resonate
with conviction —
this is the essence of dialogue!
With everyone we have
With everyone we have
the opportunity to meet and talk with,
let's converse frankly and freely
let's converse frankly and freely
and try to cultivate
good solid friendships with them
in a spirited and refreshing manner!
