1. I will meet you when the stars sleep,
And hopes awaken in their light,

2. And gardens reveal their secrets,
Their secrets, the scent of their flowers.

3. Let us steal an hour from our life,
To live it in remembrance of them.

4. I surrender my soul and heart to you,
Like a fawn in the care of its mother.

5. My body you will wring like a vine,
And quench your youth with its wine.

6. And I will give you a kiss from my lips,
To melt your being in its fire.

7. I will meet you, a specter longing cried,
And a world yearning for its dawn.

8. To make my day joyful and my tomorrow alive,
And to unleash my spirit from its fetters.
