Smooth English

This spectacle seems like a dance. All humanity must see it! Watch it! Let us two not only dance, let us enjoy the music and the song. Most people do not understand this, but this dance gives people great spiritual strength. When they dance, people make others nearby happy.

After a short time, the dancers touch our feelings. We begin to see the truth. Our spirits can be fed by the sight. How do we receive the nature of the dance?

Most people can see the movements of the dance, but they do not understand its true purpose.
