YOU ARE ALL THIS, MY LOVE

If the morning of a new day
starts with tears from greyish skies,
if there isn’t any promise
that the sun would show its eyes, -

     Simply take just a single moment
     to imagine: somewhere at the world’s end
     there’s someone who’s calling your name,
     and who's thoughts stay with you in the far land!
 
                                 ‘Cause you alone are my life’s daylight,
                                 ‘cause far from you life’s as dark as night,
                                 ‘cause the traces of tears from your Egyptian eyes
                                 are as dear to me as their sparkling spice!
 
 
If there’s something or there’s someone
bringing pain into your heart,
or extreme humiliation
tears your gentle soul apart,-

     Simply take just a single moment
     to imagine: somewhere at the world’s end –
     there is one who adores you dearly,
     and who's dreaming of you in the far land!
 
                                 ‘Cause you, my love, as the dawn of new day,
                                  as a guiding star, a fair wind for a bird,
                                  a splash of sounds in their sublime chord,
                                  quintessence of all truth the Earth conveys –
 
                - because you are all this, my Love!
