Delicate and soft,
did I catch a gaze like a gentle sip?
Delicate and light,
did I take it in as food to nourish me?
With love as our companion,
the longing search lives on.
Aching sweetly, feeling brand new,
all on its own, the cloud
turns into love.
This earth, this comfort, this pure bliss!
Swinging from the pillars of love
like a swing, this is enough, my friend.
A deep silence turns
into a language singing a lullaby.
Half you, half me,
we have become one single self.
Which is you, and which is me?
Ah, all differences have vanished completely!
Swinging from the pillars of love
like a swing, this is enough, my friend.
A deep silence turns
into a language singing a lullaby.
A lonely hum,
just like a lullaby.
Is the sky's morning song echoing all around?
Is your deep, sweet gaze calling me in?
Am I truly this gentle, flower-like girl?
Lost in this sweet longing,
I slowly drifted up into the sky.
With wide, shining eyes,
I became a quiet, lonely drizzle.
All on its own, the cloud
turns into love.
This earth, this comfort, this pure bliss!
Swinging from the pillars of love
like a swing, this is enough, my friend.
A deep silence turns
into a language singing a lullaby.
Half you, half me,
we have become one single self.
Which is you, and which is me?
Ah, all differences have vanished completely!
Swinging from the pillars of love
like a swing, this is enough, my friend.
A deep silence turns
into a language singing a lullaby.
