Songtext von Gratitude

July 13, 1946 Dear General MacArthur, With your permission I offer wishes of good health, During this heat That burns anything. The words I slowly put together Do not flow easily, they only fill my heart Recently, fulfilling Your heart's desire You removed the whaling Moratorium. Your gesture brings A much needed food To our community And families, The words I slowly put together Do not flow easily, they only fill my heart A million year old fossil I send to you. This comes from my family And the ancient sea. A prehistoric impression Of the modern krill, She feeds the noble whale, And offers you longevity The words I slowly put together Do not flow easily, they only fill my heart Finally, please take good care in the heat. Sincerely yours, Shizuka
