Author's Notes:
The right thing... what is it? I wonder... if you do the right thing... does it make... everybody... happy?
Oh, woe is me! This heavy heart
Goes out to those of the Great Bay,
Whose neighbors were depraved
By the hatred of an imp…

However, there was one there,
Who cared not for his failing country.
A musician who died in search
Of his lover’s children! Oh, woe is me!

I plead, great goddess,
Hallowed be thy name!
Grant me another chance
To ease these people’s pain.
Hear the song I play…

Give ear! Give ear!
To the melody I sing this day.
