How happy I am to be with you, my dear

How happy I am to be with you, my dear,
To share the joy and peace I hold inside.
You warmed my soul and banished every fear,
You brought your gentle warmth into my life.
In this huge world, a place of many fates,
Among a million voices, loud and low,
We found our way and opened the closed gates,
To make our dreams from slumber start to grow.

Thank you for all your tenderness and care,
For every gesture and your loving gaze,
For all the words of love you gladly share,
Repeating them to me throughout the days.
Thank you that with the years our feelings grow,
They do not fade, but burn with brighter light.
To give your love is art, and this I know:
You are a genius, shining ever bright.

And now you are my husband, evermore,
My strongest fortress, my supporting wall.
This bliss is what my heart is longing for,
We have one life to share and give our all.
I want to live with you an endless age,
To welcome winter and to welcome spring.
Your love is like an endless, open page,
And in its depths, I'm gladly drowning in.
