Falling in Love With Love
Embracing Illusions: Falling in Love Beyond Reality
Lyrics
I weave with brightly colored strings
I engage in creative activities with vibrant colors to distract myself from other thoughts.
To keep my mind off other things
Using the creative process to divert attention from other preoccupations.
So, ladies, let your fingers dance
Encouraging women to enjoy the art of handiwork, symbolized by finger dancing.
And keep your hands out of romance
Advising women to avoid getting involved in romantic relationships and maintain control.
Lovely witches
Addressing women as enchanting beings.
Let the stitches
Metaphorically suggesting that careful actions are like stitches in sewing.
Keep your fingers under control
Urging women to control their impulses and actions.
Cut the thread, but leave
Suggesting to end a relationship but keeping the emotional aspect intact.
The whole heart whole
Encouraging to end a relationship but preserve the emotional connection.
Merry maids can sew and sleep
Contrasting the carefree life of unmarried women with the burdens of wives.
Wives can only sew and weep
Highlighting the limited freedom and emotional struggles of married women.
