Listening Text
The poem celebrates the poets’ wandering life, guided by the wind’s beckoning. With lutes
in hand, they explore cities, battles, and memories, finding kinship with all humanity. Love
and joy don’t bind them; they’re unburdened. The wind’s voice symbolizes their fate, leading
them forward. They embrace a carefree existence, unattached and free, following their destined
path without hesitation. The poets cherish the wind’s call, which embodies their life’s purpose.
Through their verses, they reveal the beauty of their journey, as they heed the wind’s voice,
finding freedom, adventure, and their place in the world.
