This evening

The endless evening wraps itself around the sky,
Clouds drift lightly, fading as they pass me by.
Alone I sit and hear the trembling strings inside,
As if a distant shadow gently steps into my life.

Wandering winds are drifting through the twilight air,
A tender wistful feeling softly brushes everywhere.
And in my heart arise the sweetest flowing songs,
For you have come to me — the one I’ve waited for so long.

The moonlight falls so softly, and the world sinks into bliss.
We sit here side by side, drinking heaven’s happiness.
I love the quiet night, for all the space around us seems
To listen to my heart, serene like silver dreams.
Is this our private sky? Is this our endless spring of joy?

One day with you can fill my soul with faith anew,
Can wake the rising life that beats within me too.
One day with you can let me breathe in love so warm,
Can bind our hearts as one in threads of longing still unborn.

And darling, if tomorrow somehow pulls us far apart,
Please don’t forget me — keep my name within your heart.
Our memories flow clear as a gentle mountain stream,
Softly caressing every sorrow we have seen.
