The Scent of Love

Wild scent like the wind blowing. 
Surging high like the sea billowing. 
Your alluring smell makes my head spin.
It leaves traces of fragrance on my skin. 

If for the fragrance of your sweet love, I should fall,
then I'd be willing to risk my all. 
I shall sail with you through ages without regret, 
making sweet scent of memories I shan't forget.
