Beneath deep wells of stars and incomprehensible darkness

Beneath deep wells of stars and incomprehensible darkness,
Love has enveloped me like a wind from other worlds,
It arrived unannounced, like an angel lost in reverse flight,
Your breeze, a song that crowns times and ancestors.
Oh, traveler through seasons, who brings with you life's rebirth,
How could you rise in my heart like an unexpected sun?
You've bloomed dream gardens, gazing into your eyes, I lose law and measure,
And I wander, a prisoner in your mirage, amidst crowns of wild-grown springs.
You have been a mystery in the fog of the night, a presence that defies gods,
And with a single glance, you melted walls, you transformed a simple man
Into an eternal seeker on paths of infinity, after celestial signs.
I've stumbled on the rays from the depth of your eyes, paths toward unformed Edens.
What thin unseen thread has woven you into my essence?
What spell did you utter, what spell did you unravel, for now I am nothing but
A silent silhouette, blinded by your lights, a lone dancer at the ball of oblivion.
I am dust and I am infinity, I am storm and I am breeze at the same time.
In the sanctuary of my heart, you have slipped in, your footsteps eternal echoes,
And though you build in my mind pain and peace, chaos and cosmos,
My words tumble out raw and pure, forever living feeling.
In the language of the world, simple, earthly, I hear the echo in response - 'Do not forget: I love you'.
