Lotus Island
I hardly hear the wind whispering
While we nestle, aired in the ballad.
Life gels as the flame in our hearts flares up;
Our breath, a blazing fire in winter.
I hardly can stay alone since we met,
While the elixir showers the air,
Making me take in life: we must first
Fuse to transmute into pure gold.
I hardly can see life existing
Beyond the two of us. The world is
Strange to our nest in Lotus Island
Where love is the air, water, and bread.
I hardly think tomorrow today;
Life is now, and no other day dares
Impinge on the endless love streaming
From the spring that gurgles in our hearts.
I hardly believe that life will end.
If to clasp to your bosom is life,
Then I live in eternity because
I'm lost, each moment in living Love.
