Shes Got You

By: hank cochran
1961, 1989
Ive got your picture you gave to me
And its signed with love just like it used to be
Only tang different, only tang new
Ive got your picture, shes got you
Ive got your records we used to share
And they still sound the same when you were here
Only tang different, only tang new
Ive got your records, hes got you
Ive got your memory, or has it got me?
Really dont know, but I know, it wont let me be
(wont let me be)
Ive got your memory, or has it got me?
Really dont know, but I know, it wont let me be
(wont let me be)
Ive got your class ring, that proves you care
And it still looks the same as when you gave it dear
Only tang different, only tang new
Ive got your class ring, hes got you

The Mayaguez Incident

Look and find our names upon The Wall,
Hargrove, Hall and Marshall were our names.
We were three men that were left behind,
three Marines still owed honorable graves.

Marines took back the hijacked Mayaguez
and recovered all her crewmen safe and well
But while our mission accomplished its objective
The Ninth Marines were ferried into hell.

The helicopters took us to the island,
Koh Tang, in the Southern China sea
The Khmer Rouge were dug in on the island
prepared for an assault from air or sea.

They say it was a failure of Intelligence-
The crew of The Mayaguez was moved before
The 2nd battalion forces first were landed
Upon that hostile beach, that deadly shore

Havfruen ved Samsøe

Det er sildigt alt paa Aft'nen, Stormen stiger meer og meer,
Bølgen vælter sig mod Kysten, hvor man Fiskerhytten seer.
O, der er saa luunt derinde, gamle Mutter sidder her,
Og ved Fyrrepindens Flamme bøder hun paa Garnet der.
Hist i Krogen ligger Katten, den er ei i Ungdoms Vaar,
Sildehoveder den spiser af et gammelt Potteskaar.
Lav er Døren, uden Lukke ryster den ved Stormens Kast,
Skjøndt den nok saa godt er bunden med en gammel Strikke fast.
Hør — nu rasler det derude, gamle Fatter kommer hjem;
„Gud skee Lov, han kom den Gamle! Søen er i Aften slem."
Men, hvor han er bleg og stille, Skyer paa hans Pande staae;
Han sin gamle Klædning kaster, tager Søndags-Stadsen paa.
Haaret børster han med Haanden; see, hans Øie ruller vildt;
Undrende hans gamle Qvinde trykker ham i Haanden mildt.
Hende kan han ikke dølge, hvad der driver ham afsted;
„Jeg maa bort! til Dannerhoffet; før faaer jeg ei nogen Fred.
Havfruen igjen jeg hørte, det er nu den tredie Gang;
Hvis jeg dvæler længer, vil hun synge snart min Dødningsang.
Hvert af hendes Ord jeg husker, o det klang saa stort, saa smukt!
Snart skal Jubelklokken klinge over Belte, Sund og Bugt,

Kon Mosulat Ko Og Balak Sa Gugma Alang Kanimo

kon mosulat ko
og balak sa gugma bahin natong duha
buot nako nga ang mga pulong
sama sa mga sulog sa tubig sa suba
tapad sa kanipaan ug mga kasagbotan

kanang naa ta sa daplin
ug dili kabantay
sa paglabay sa dakong sulog
hangtod maanod tang duha

manghawid ka sa sagbot
apan maibot kini
manghawid ko sa nipa apan
malangkat ang dahon ug ako
madakin-as ug ikaw mohawid
sa akong kamot ug kitang duha
mangaanod ug dili ta manyagit
aron kita tabangan

Phantasiebillede

Uden Græs og Blomster, uden høie Fjelde,
Kun et øde Sand-Revl mod Havets Vælde,
Strækker Odden sig her, sørgende, stor!
Det golde Klittag i Sandet groer,
Hvor de sorte Vrag titte frem, omviklet med Tang,
Og skue Bølgerne fødes og døe, under Stormens Sang.
Nu tændes Fyret — det røde Skjær over Dybet gaaer;
Klar er Himlen, — Stjerne ved Stjerne staaer,
Og hist ude over de svulmende Vande
Flyver en Snekke mod fjerne Lande;
Men hist paa Tangens yderste Pynt, mod Bølgens Slag,
Sidder et Barn, han holder sig fast ved et Vrag,
Og blæser Bobler, brogede, smukke,
Mens Bølgerne briste, foran ham, med dybe Sukke. -
Han seer i Boblen Barndommens Lykke og Drømme,
Seer Farverne vexle saa smukt, i Luftningens Strømme;
Seer Ungdommens Længsel og Kjærligheds jublende Lyst,
Medens underligt, rundtomkring paa den øde Kyst,
De sorte Vrag hæve sig op fra det hvide Sand,
Og luftige Aander svæve hen ad den barske Strand;

Poetry: Ode of Good Wife

Ode of Good Wife
By Tang Poet Zhang Ji (768-830)
Translated by Laijon Liu 20090613

You know I have husband,
So you give me a pair of pearl.
I thank your touching thoughts,
So I tie them on my red coat.
My family dwells on tall building,
And they rest within the high walls;
My husband holds his sharp spear,
And guarding in the palace light.

I understand your heart clearly,
As reading the sun and the moon.
But I’ve sworn to serve my husband,
To be with him in life and death.
And now I must return these pearls,
They are bright as my falling tears.
I only have one thing to regret:

April

'- Frihed, synger Du, April!
med nyfødt Grønt og Sommer-Smiil.'
*
(Strandveien).

En ung Herre (til Hest).
O, April! en deilig Maaned!
En Champagne-Maaned er Du!
Gjennem Snee og Vinterkulde
Du fremsprudler Liv og Varme.
Sommersol og Vinterhagel,
Marken Grøn, og dog lidt Snee!
Mig i Sind og Skind Du ligner,
Som en Draabe ligner Draaben.
Ungdomsglad jeg slynger Armen
Om hver buttet deilig Pige,
Trykker Kys paa Barm og Læbe;
Sværmer nu hos Pleisch og Minni, 1
Siger Vittighed, par Diable!
- Andre Tider Regn og Taage,

Rec Room

[inspectah deck]
Oh, killah hill, killah killa hill
Killah hill, killah killah hill
Killah hill, killah killah hill
10304 style, kid, yea
For all my d.m.d. rec posse niggaz
You out there? is you out there?
I throw your brain in the cobra clutch, behold the hold rush
A dazzlin display if you could get close enough
Cold crush like the 4 stinger anaconda
Fierce darts thatll pierce through solid armor
Lounge in the barracks with blue and cappadonna
Spiderman identity peter parker
Crowd pleaser register off the meter
Vocal street sweaper bucks shots through the speaker
Pleasure seekers, 50 thou in the stands
True fans get it hot like jamaica sands
Conquer land, wide like a eagle wingspan
Clansman stabbin the track with both hands
Not a lost soul who falls for fools gold
