Every time, my love, I remember,
The frozen ocean appears ahead of me:
On the steamy sky no star shows itself,
Far away only the yellow moon-a spot;
And over thousands of rapid icy waves
A bird is floating with tired wings,
While its mate kept flying forward
With a whole stock of birds, disappearing in the sunset,
It's looking back with suffering glances,
It's not sorry now, it's not glad... it dies,
Dreaming itself years back in a second.

We are further and further together,
More and more I'm darkening and freezing,
When you're not disappearing in the eternal morning's horizon.

What's love? It's a long
Reason for pain,
Because thousands of tears aren't enough
And it keeps asking for more.

Of a passing sign from her
It binds your soul,
So that you won't forget her
Your whole life.

But she's still waiting in the threshold for you
In the corner's shadows,
So lover with lover can meet
After your heart's request:

The sky and earth disappear
And your chest is beating,
And it keeps hanging from a word
Half whispered.

It follows you for weeks
A step made slowly,
A sweet handshake,
An eyelash trembling.

Lights are following you
Like the sun and the moon,
And through the day so many times
And always in the night.

Because it was written that your life
Of her longing won't fit,
Because it embraced you like
The liana from the water.
