Love is singing a lullaby
Shyness falls asleep like a flower, oh
Strange feelings stir within my chest
My swaying dance rises up to the sky
You are doing something to me
Aah... aan...
Wiping the tears from my eyes,
You place a flower and gaze at me
Teased by your reflection,
Everything I see turns fragrant
Look, right here, it all comes true before my eyes
Even if you travel to unreachable distances...
You...
An unchanging love will still blossom... come
Even if hurtful words are heard...
The silence you speak into my ear will protect me...
When you leave without a word,
And I yearn for you from the depths of my heart,
I lived in tears that never turn to ash
Even if seven times seven lifetimes come to an end,
I will wander searching for you, carrying the warmth of your touch...
You... in the rain-drenched forest,
You are the unseen voice that echoes on...
