………………………………..
My love, will you accept
this soul-deep love of mine?
I want to live my life with you.
My love, your glances
are like a gentle drizzle in my heart.
Suddenly, I feel like leaning on your shoulder.
Do not drift away, do not leave me,
even for a single second.
For a long time, my heart has yearned;
you are my only companion.
At times, turning into a dry leaf,
fate somehow made me fall.
But like wings, I found you,
and I took flight.
...
In this forest of love,
O girl who wanders restless,
shall I confess my love to you?
Gathering the words
that your silence speaks,
shall I tell you their meaning?
Holding you close to my chest
and speaking with tenderness,
is indeed my deepest desire.
Even so, for some reason,
I walked away without saying a word,
hiding behind a false mask.
A silent rehearsal
is what I learned from you every day.
You do not need the song of a cuckoo or the sound of rain, my life,
for I have become all of those to you now.
Without letting you feel the chisel's strike,
O sculpture that endures pain,
without letting even an eyelash fall,
I will protect you.
My darling, won't you listen
to the song my heart is singing?
It always calls out your name.
My love, your glances
are like a gentle drizzle in my heart.
Suddenly, I feel like leaning on your shoulder.
You do not need the song of a cuckoo or the sound of rain, my life,
for I have become all of those to you now.
At times, turning into a dry leaf, fate somehow made me fall.
But you became my wings, and I took flight.
