Atop my soul's mountain
The darkness of the winter will pass,
Like the bell of that narrow bridge
Between the yesterday and the tomorrow
The evening glides and floats.
My home is not far away
You are leaving too,
I will draw my yearnings for you
For I have no more strength to speak.
We shall meet at the flowering, in a beloved land,
For you are a foreigner in the Land of Darkness.
To the sound of your torn string
I will miss from afar,
The candle of the night shines brightly
And the smell of spring is like of a planted tree.
My home is not far away
You are leaving too,
I will draw my yearnings for you
For I have no more strength to speak.
We shall meet at the flowering, in a beloved land,
For you are a foreigner in the Land of Darkness.
