(Humming...)
Hey, lovely girl...
Hey! Hey, my lovely girl...
Why did you come like the breeze?
Mmm... why did you become my love?
Like a child chasing a shadow...
as I chased after you,
I realized that you are my own shadow...!
My morning walk does not end, girl...
until I reach your doorstep... until then...
Even the streets
guide me by giving your address!
Even joy itself celebrates,
hearing the love we speak of!.. Hearing it...
When the sky comes down
and showers moonlight!
Like a light, drizzling rain,
you drifted gently inside me!
Like the calm silence of meditation,
you wrapped me in love.
Hesitations and restless longings,
I felt for the first time.
Speaking in silence,
I learned a new language!
Whenever I pass by you,
I don't know why a thrill runs through me!
I longed to blend myself into you... why?
The morning
does not truly break, my darling...
until I see you... until then...
Even the streets
will show the path you walked on! Show it...
Like a heart beating without a pause,
as I immerse myself in your thoughts...
All the love stories
that come in the future will admire us!
(Humming...)
