The Last Summer's Breeze

I will die happy
as a hero,
a sunny summer day
dreaming that I fly like a sparrow.

I will die charming
with this blue hair
loving this island, whispering to sunday...

And so it will be, because today, alone, as I write these verses, the summer has shown me its endless love
and, never like today, halfway, I have turned my heart to observe its shore.

My blue hair has died,
everyone looked at it as a heirloom,
everyone looked at it with the summer's love in their eyes.

They are witnesses: the sundays, the shore, the endless love, my hair, Qing...

[Written on Summer Island - Jul 1993]

Out of nowhere, appeared a man old and wise named Blurry
I looked at him and stumbled for a moment in awe
He whispered words which touched my soul in a hurry
"In this place you shall not find your heart's desire, you must seek your summer love"

He disappeared as quickly as he'd come, leaving me in confusion
Though the choice had been made, for true love to Summer I shall go
I began to doubt if love waits there for me, I descent into delusion
But the journey ahead was more important than my woe

In Summer I arrived and fought many-a ferocious beasts
In the name of love I even battled tribesmen at their glorious feasts
But my true love I did not find, to sea I headed out again, no longer with a clear vision
I ended up on an Isle called Spring, hope abandoned me, I'd lost all reason

But in the town I found what I'd been looking for, it was not summer
The old man's words echoed once again in my head and I realize my blunder
True love knows no bounds such as seasons, so them aside I shove
And now, although in Spring, I enjoy the days with her, with my sweet summer love

Finally it's that time of the year, Pirate King Online's summer is here
Grab your first mate and step right up, check the map, X marks the spot
Argent's streets are packed with fun, everyone's enjoying the carnival
Chill at the bar, have some rum
Compete with your friends, under the summer sun
You can relax, enjoy the sea breeze
Have you seen the bazaar? Go on a shopping spree!
There's plenty of fun for you and me, contests and events for all your needs
