Classic Poem

Hep-Cat Chung, 'ware my town,
don't break my willows down.
The trees don't matter
but father's tongue, mother's tongue
Have a heart, Chung,
it's awful.

Hep-Cat Chung, don't jump my wall
nor strip my mulberry boughs,
The boughs don't matter
But my brothers' clatter!
Have a heart, Chung,
it's awful.

Hep-Cat Chung, that is my garden wall,
Don't break my sandalwood tree.
The tree don't matter
But the subsequent chatter!
Have a heart, Chung,
it's awful.
