A flash of lightning spreading inside me
looks just like your shadow.
Forgetting myself, I smile,
and a golden world dawns.
A flash of lightning spreading inside me
looks just like your shadow.
Forgetting myself, I smile,
and a golden world dawns.
The feet once buried in the mud of tears,
time is now rescuing so beautifully.
Rocking on a swing of stars,
love listens to the music of life.
The dreams that once scattered
are blossoming from the roots again.
Even in an extinguished lamp, longing
stretches out a flame of light.
Drizzle, drizzle, drizzle,
a drizzle deep inside my heart.
Drizzle, drizzle, drizzle,
you are that drizzle.
Gentle rain, gentle rain, gentle rain,
a gentle rain of love inside me.
Gentle rain, gentle rain, gentle rain,
a golden gentle rain.
On that night long ago,
you came like the silver moon.
With the love you poured out generously,
you gave yourself to me forever.
Beyond adding or subtracting,
in what calculation could I ever place you?
Upon the fortress walls from now on,
will I bloom like a golden tree flower?
My heart turns into morning mist,
as a rainbow rises within me.
Enough, enough, it is enough,
this blossoming love is enough.
Enough, enough, it is enough,
it is enough.
Enough, enough, it is enough,
this soothing, lullabying love is enough.
Enough, enough, it is enough,
forever.
