1. O my love, when I die
My love for you will not fade

2. Does the blossoming flower
Ask about affection from the meadows?

3. Just your presence is a blessing
For me, not spring or beauty

4. Who can hope to be
In union with the light?

5. The light guides but cannot be attained
Nor can it hope to be gained

6. O my love, I fear
My state will be mourned by forefathers

7. I'm used to living disconnected
To impossible dreams

8. And perhaps I'll teach the birds
Songs of the heights

9. And we'll live in the future
On imagination's paths

10. A legend never uttered
Or conceived in thought

11. O my love, your face is too noble
For me to ponder decay

12. In the beginning you were, and I was
Before days or nights

13. So when the age of time runs out
And mountains tremble and sway

14. We'll float on wings and mock
From up there, perfection's display

15. O my love, when I die
My love for you will not fade
