Though not ancient taoist, Finland has a strong shame culture so we also have lots of popular lyrics that seem to align with the theme. Another cultural pointer is Hal Sirowitz' Mother said.
* Sadetanssi: Kuvasi kaltainen *
you said, little boy
the wheel of the world is best
pedalled so softly no one even notices
and beware the day you look behind
when speed no longer notices
the pedal pressed to the floor
you said, that boy
don’t let him loose
he doesn’t instantly know which way he should be going
if somewhere comes the sound
of good behaviour breaking
if somewhere they are having fun without your permission
you wear your shame with pride
when you look me in the face
I am made in your image
you’d rather be ordinary
than stunted in your growth
well-behaved rather than torn inside
when you open the cupboard in the morning
the skeletons are laughing
you don’t know a single one
but still they laugh at you
when at night you look into the mirror
and see my face
I smile at you softly
and turn my back
I’ve made every mistake
you only dream of making
I am made in your image
