Love from you, my darling,
In the darkest of days, I need it.
Love from you, my beautiful,
In the blackest of nights, I wish it.
Love from you, my inamorata,
In the loneliest evenings, I require it.
Love from you o my best friend.

Love from you, o my baby,
In the playful days, I enjoy it.
Love from you, my dilruba,
In my sorrowful time, I miss it.
Love from you, my humjoli,
In all my joyful time I cherish it.
Love from you, my humdum.

Love from you o my lover,
In the brightest days, I need it.
Love from you, my gorgeous,
In the whitest dreams, I desire it.
Love from you, my mehbooba,
In the busiest mornings, I yearn it.
Love from you, my Jaan-e-mann.

Follow me tonight,
Follow me forever,
Follow me as I walk,
Let us live forever together.

Moon, straight above us, a ray of light, there to guide us...Take my hand - let's walk.
Close your eyes, babe, and hold me tight, I am going to guide you home, make you feel alright.
My left hand falls from your neck, runs softly down your back,
My right hand is holding your left and I turn to whisper in your ear.

Follow me tonight,
Follow me forever,
Follow me as I walk,
Let us live forever together.

Life will be racing - like the waves running towards us and  just as quickly retreating back into the ocean - lost in time.
Our love will be rejoicing - life as we choose it to be, with the stars up above - never leave me.

Follow me tonight,
Follow me forever,
Follow me as I walk,
Let us live forever together.

A winter's celebration filled with snow flakes and hot chocolate,
A fireplace, soft music and pretty little orchids. I will paint you my masterpiece and I will write you a novel. I will sing with my own voice and I will play the piano. I will sing a hundred million love songs just for you and I will never deceive you I will always be true.

Follow me tonight,
Follow me forever,
Follow me as I walk,
Let us live forever together.

I want to dance with you - hold you and whisper in your ear.
Sweet words of love and more love to spare.
A song will be playing and our bodies will be swaying, sweet childish rhymes as we roll in the sand. Look into my eyes, babe, and hold my hand,
Follow me tonight,
Follow me forever,
Follow me as I walk,
Let us live forever together.

Towering over the moon glazed groves,
Soaring phoenix of night-
What are the storms of your mind?

To what measure do your cloud wings extend?
From shores of salt and shells,
To the high rise of the wise old mountains,
But where therein is your essence hidden?

Flaming jewels for eyes,
That vapor of solitude,
Treading the night skies.

Lined by lightning feathers
And bold with thunderous clap,
Created are whole windstorms at a single wing's flap!

Great and noble, we know this bird.
As loud as the storms at bay;
But they say he is made in silence,
Speaking through things unheard
And words we cannot say..

So sailed across the star candled oceans~
Did the age-old secret scroll,
Stories of the Night Phoenix, adventures of never-told!
adventures of never-told... or something
Dew drops gleam upon the wing
and flowers bloom as voices sing
In the crevice of willow root
Beneath the moss that's underfoot
Peal back the bark of an ancient tree
and a wondrous world of fairies you'll see
Magic sun rays light the path
Glistening waters flow in a cleansing bath
To refresh the souls of all who pass
Magic dust floats in the air
and fairies flutter everywhere
Tread not there upon that land
Unless with fairy hand in hand

Nevermind
A shooting star
Moved through the sky
It was gone
In the blink of an eye
But I didn't blink
I kept my eyes wide
I'll never let go
I'll never say goodbye

Nevermind
I want to get lost
In your garden
Forever
Where things are okay
Where there's perfect weather
Canopy trees
Shelter me
In the grass
Life teems
Untouched and raw
Completely wild
I'll drift away
All the while
The world goes on
Beyond the trees
My thoughts at rest
My mind at ease
Leaves cast shadows
That dance on the ground
My ears are drenched
In the sweet sound
Of birds singing
Wind chimes ringing
Squirrels scurrying
Our soft laughter
Who knew
Such a perfect place
Could exist
Why can't life
Always be like this?
I will be the gladdest thing
  Under the sun!
I will touch a hundred flowers
  And not pick one.

I will look at cliffs and clouds
  With quiet eyes,
Watch the wind bow down the grass,
  And the grass rise.

And when lights begin to show
  Up from the town,
I will mark which must be mine,
  And then start down!
Back into our first love
Is where I want to be
Your smile in my eyes
My smile shining back
Our hearts are as one

My tingling lips await
For yours upon mine
Making my heart flow
With a love so strong
That I will surely burst
Oh my love , my love

It will not be so long
For our arms to entwine
Caress, oh sweet caress
Will be ours to share
Every hour of our day
Back into our first love.

Tonight, when I walked in the rain,
Raindrops gently fell upon my face,
Bringing fond memories of you again.

When  we watched the stars,  sparkle with reign,
And the crescent moon, emitted a translucent light,
Bringing a sensational feeling, that I couldn't refrain.

Without you life goes by very slowly, and it's difficult to explain,
Since you are the one, who blinds me when you're near,
And cuddles me when I am lonely, taking away all of my pain.
