As if someone called out to me,
my heart turned around.
In my searching eyes,
the full moon overflowed with light.
Who is that over there? Is it the god of love?
Who was searching for me? Is it my soul?
Inside my heart, I heard a voice.
Today, I saw your face.
As if someone called out to me,
my heart turned around.
Silence is a kind of love,
and music too is love.
Every sound that I hear,
my love, is only your name.
Across the rainbow,
all seven colors are love.
If love were taken away,
even the cuckoos would be mute.
I bloomed for you to come and wear me,
I watched and waited to hold you inside my eyes.
As the sense of 'you' and 'I'
gets lost and fades away...
As if someone called out to me,
my heart turned around...
Like a flower falling on a meadow,
I fell into love.
In the falling drops of dew,
slowly, slowly I was drenched.
Getting lost in the eyes of love,
I am drifting away.
Softly undone in the arms of love,
I too am drifting away.
I stood waiting, searching for myself in you.
I came rushing like mountain streams,
as 'I' completely dissolves into 'you'...
As if someone called out to me,
my heart turned around...
Who is that over there? Is it the god of love?
Who was searching for me? Is it my soul?
Inside my heart, I heard a voice... oh...
Today, I saw your face.
