My soul - a scent, dreams entwined,
In silver seams, your essence binds.
My heart awakens, hushed and bright;
I feel you near in fading light.

My world, in trembling radiance, grows;
A thousand stars - the night dissolves.
If once again your gaze I meet,
The cosmos fades, my soul complete.

If soft, I whisper in your ear,
Embered longing finds your light.
For love's pure, soaring gleam I sigh,
Where spirit, soul, in dreams run high.

Then in your calm, my heart finds peace;
My restless longings gently cease.
