I Love To Dream

 

I love to dream about the sky,

about its soul of a thousand stars.

I love to dream about the sea,

about its heart of a thousand waves.

 

I love to dream about the field

covered with a thousand flowers.

They remind me of the soul and the sea,

intertwined in one dream.

 

I Offer You My Hand

 

I sell you my hand and then I will hold you

in my embrace, a breath of tenderness.

In hazy thoughts I will scatter

your loneliness, your stepmother.

 

Stop your gaze, blossomed in the iris

and spreading its magic far.

In the chaos, agony would not return,

you would not slice your soul with the deceitful sword.

 

 

I sell you my hand, take it

and make a harbour with it.

Look into my soul, accept it.

See, your dreams are flowing in.

 

I sell you my hand and I will follow you…
