Women look at us with haunting eyes
Women look at us with haunting eyes,
Quiet depths where dreams swing, scattered gems,
What do we seek, perhaps, among rays and shadows, to embrace the dawn?
On pathways hidden beneath leaves, where love is whispered in the rustle of the wind.
Women gaze at us with velvety eyes,
Deep seas where yearnings swim, shining pearls,
What do we sway for, among waves and shells, to gather treasures?
On golden sands, where love rises within sea foam.
Women regard us with mother-of-pearl eyes,
Blue skies where dreams fly, glittering stars,
What do we desire, to soar among clouds and birds, toward the sun?
On wings of wind, where love is sung in the song of a zephyr.
Women watch us with eyes of fire,
Blazing volcanoes where passions ignite, consuming flames,
What do we search for, among lava and ash, to warm our hearts?
On cliffs of fire, where love melts in the glow of a volcano.
Women stare at us with eyes of ice,
Eternal snows where desires freeze, cooling crystals,
What do we wish for, among flakes and snowfall, to cool our souls?
On floes of ice, where love freezes in the chill of winter.
Women look at us with honeyed eyes,
Green fields where feelings blossom, fragrant flowers,
What do we search for, among wheat and poppies, to sweeten our life?
On meadows of honey, where love revives in the dew of the morning.
Women behold us with eyes of clay,
Fertile lands where emotions take root, ripened fruits,
What do we wish for, among furrows and seeds, to nourish our body?
On fields of clay, where love is nourished by the sap of the earth.
Women observe us with eyes of gold,
Holy temples where mysteries are kept, hidden treasures,
What do we search for, among columns and statues, to worship the goddess?
On altars of gold, where love prays in the silence of prayer.
Women look at us with eyes of dreams,
Fantastical worlds where magic happens, astonishing wonders,
What do we long for, among fairy tales and legends, to live out our story?
In realms of dreams, where love occurs in the enchantment of a spell.
