Oh God, oh God,
I have been reborn because of you.
In dreams, in dreams,
I have naturally begun to live.
To shower worship flowers over your face,
They have been waiting from the day they bloomed.
For the sound of temple bells to reach your ears,
Whoever comes to ring them, they joyfully sway.
All that I see today,
Is not a lie, it is the truth, my lady.
Just to give an offering, you gave your life, my lady.
Oh God, oh God,
I have been reborn because of you.
In dreams, in dreams,
I have naturally begun to live.
...
The moment I looked into your eyes, swiftly,
Lightning struck inside my heart.
Even without wings upon my shoulders,
My body soars into the sky.
That you gave me this brand new life,
All five of my senses say thank you.
I roamed about endlessly like an aimless stray,
At the call of your eyelids, I reached the shore.
On your finger, my heart has become a ring.
Oh God, oh God,
I have been reborn because of you.
In dreams, in dreams,
I have naturally begun to live.
...
... Female: ...
Oh ho ho, to see the earth for the first time,
My mother's womb gave command.
To look at me for the first time,
Your dark eyes gave command.
A river originates in the high mountains,
And the place where it merges becomes the sea.
This is a language spoken soul to soul,
What language could ever be finer than this?
I offer my life as a tribute at your feet.
Oh God, oh God,
I have been reborn because of you.
In dreams, in dreams,
I have naturally begun to live.
To shower worship flowers over your face,
They have been waiting from the day they bloomed.
For the sound of temple bells to reach your ears,
Whoever comes to ring them, they joyfully sway.
All that I see today,
Is not a lie, it is the truth, my lady.
Just to give an offering, you gave your life, my lady.
