Separate us from the cords that bind us together
Release us from the pains that we share
Restore unto me
My one and true self
The paths that we take
In many diverse ways
Intermingle and intertwine
But should that be the case?
Release me from the pains that I bear
So my mind can be free
For the rest of the world to see

I would like to translate this poem
This is interesting. I also feel it relates such a valuable lesson. That no matter how involved we become with another, no matter how entwined our lives become, we all must still remember the importance of remaining separate. Of having our own thoughts and ideas and knowing that there will still be times when we must travel certain parts of the journey on our own. Great poem!
