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.
