Lead me, lead me, my God

Lead me, lead me, my God,
Through the thorns of life, through the gloom and darkness,
Lead me to my beloved,
Through the heat of life, through the blizzard of sins.

Lead me, that I may not inadvertently
To keep me from straying from your path,            
Lead me to be one with you
To be one with you, but accept me 

“Lead me not to perish
And not to lose the thread of life,
To overcome myself, to rise again,            
On the day of your coming, alive.

I'm not living in Heaven

I'm not living in Heaven,
      Without love on earth               
      You started it all               
      You're the end!
      Who's ever been there
      Who hasn't loved with his soul               
      You were allowed to do everything,               
      I was sick with you
      What was our meeting
      Lonely men crossing paths
      Life brought us together               
       ?... - And separated us again!

AGATE BEADS OF HAPPINESS

AGATE BEADS OF HAPPINESS

The tears have dried up
The lines have lost their rhyme
The taste of life is slipping away
But I'm still looking for you

I wake up at night
I call you without words
I beg you, just a little,
Be brave, don't be afraid to try 

You'll feel my piercing rays 
I'm running through new and unbroken lines,
of my relentless writing,
And day by day I string them together like threads,

I string together the words that call to you, the enchanting cascade of words.
Agate beads of happiness.
But you're still not there.
Wake up at last and take pity,

I've come to sleepless nights because of you.
Instead of my beloved, hugging my pillow,
I'm not tired of going a little crazy,
Maybe it's because I'm tired of life,

Or maybe it's because
I'm in a cloud of barren feelings
If you don't love, don't love
Don't want it, don't want it 

But give me a smile to say goodbye,
And let me wish for one thing 
That you'll be lucky enough to find
Your love, your sorrow...

I love you

I love you
I don't love you sometimes
I'm reaching out to you 
And I don't want to hide

My feelings for you 
I'll bury them in the melted ground                
I'll water them               
I'll wash away my sorrow with my tears

Let them sprout
Flowers with a mysterious soul                
I'll present them to you               
I'll reveal my secret to you.

Life has arranged for us,
My meeting with you,               
Would never have separated us,               
Time would have separated us by blind enmity.

Love is cruel
And treacherous they say
And sometimes it can turn               
# It can be the other way around
