The Song Book of Quong Lee of Limehouse
Throughout the day I sit behind the counter of my shop
And the odours of my country are all about me-
Areca nut, and betel leaf, and manioc,
Lychee and suey sen,
Li-un and dried seaweed,
Tchah and sam-shu;
And these carry my mind to half-forgotten days
When tales were plentiful and care was hard to hold.

And these carry my mind to half-forgotten days
When tales were plentiful and care was hard to hold.
