My loneliness comes to an end today
In restless longing, my eyes wander
Like a little child left all alone
My heart yearns to hold you close
You are the force behind the whirlwind
On the days I live without you
My heart will yearn and search for you
You are my inseparable lifetime
I understand the language of the night
It softly spills through the lips
Even if my eyelids barely blink, my love
It continues in my dreams every day
Within arm's reach, a painted crescent moon
Like a delicate statue carved like a sieve
I transformed and caressed your soul
You are the eyes I can never escape from
Because of you, my heart leaps
It searches only for you
Give me that kiss you give every day
My passion will find its peace
My body burns all on its own
It turns into a wild intoxication
Give me whatever is left after you consume me
Come to quench this thirst...
To hold an umbrella so softly and gently
Like rushing rain spread wide, I will breathe life into you
As a sculpture carved by love
Like a little child, I rest my head on your lap
Crossing every hardship, I become your forever in life
Even if the separation lasts
for just a second, like giving a brief reply
I will protect you
I try to remain myself every day
But you make me babble effortlessly
Your fingers strummed me for just a moment
And my soul asks for it every single day
Just like us, to grant a blessing
A flower will bloom
An endless love
When you rest your head on my shoulder
Upon a single leaf
I become bouncing raindrops
Even if I go to heaven
just to bring you back
even by winning over God
I will come back to be with you
My loneliness comes to an end today... ah
In restless longing, my eyes wander... ah
Like a little child left all alone
My heart yearns to hold you close
You are the force behind the whirlwind
On the days I live without you
Female: My heart will yearn and search for you
You are my inseparable lifetime
