Echoes in the Abyss
I'm a pearl in a seashell, but for the world, nothing
Just like those stars, which at a full-moon night, are nothing.
As wind deceives a little leaf, it falls down dancing
on the mud, others play clarion, it gets nothing
Heard that the shine of your Gazelle eyes embarrassed the
Moon last night, for in front of you her light was nothing
I dream to walk on sand hand in hand beneath the stars
Watch the dawn at shore, but my dreams to you are nothing
Your love for me should've been enough for me O’ Lord
But my cravings for more always lead me to nothing
In desert I walk, follow a track apart from all
But instead of Oasis, it takes me to Nothing
Death could be our mother to the other world, but we
can't be gods there either______all this Labor for nothing
Now you stand here Paghunda, confuse, melancholic
In the middle of Abyss, in center of nothing
