Whether it’s day or night, may I have you by my side, In my heart lives just this thought — that you are by my side. The crimson flowers in the garden softly breathe your name, As though your presence lingers, drifting gently through the air. Why do you hide away within this blossoming spring, my love? Come before me now, and let my restless heart find thy love. Come a little closer now, let all this distance fade away, Let me hide you in my eyes — just trust me for a while. Every beat within my heart keeps calling out your name, In every breath I take, it’s only you who lives in me. You say that you are near, yet still you can’t be seen, What kind of magic is this — what kind of longing is this? These helpless eyes of mine refuse to stand with me today, You stand before me still — yet why can I not see you my beloved. Whether it’s day or night, may I have you by my side, In my heart lives just this thought — that you are by my side
