I cross over seven seas
To be with him
The only person enchant
My sublime soul
With his magical words.
Now,
I am totally lost
In my own lonely life.
I live alone,
Without any hope in life.
Stand without fear
On the mountaintop
Just to have a look at him,
The man whom I love.
My feeble heart is searching for him,
Every nook and corner.
My eyes shed a tear or two,
On the very thought of losing him!
I cry,
I weep,
And I shout.
Then I hear an echo
“Come my love, I am all yours!”
Then the sea calms down,
Thunder stop,
Flowers bloom.
And suddenly a new vigour and faith,
Entered my heart.
I smiled and smiled
For all his love!
From today
The world is going
To be better and better
And the streams will flow silently.
To the ultimate destination,
To the ocean of love.
