I shine for you from a distance safely as a candle flame
I lead you through a sandstorm, which wrapped us both
Just set the beat and we will step forward together
Tinkle, sing, let your fingers into the webs of strings

We've been striding through the desert for days and months
Worthless gold we sift through our fingers
Distant sands, yellowish dunes
Don't give up our fight, our journey as far as behind the horizon

We cross the valley and reach the mountains
Below a high peak we'll close our eyes
It's unreal to touch the earth
And to breathe dust flying through the wind

To wander through a long street of mysterious towns
Both my night furies and dreamed wishes
The squalor, which I invoke now,
I swallow eagerly like the divine manna

Stop, ask whether those outlines have dreams too
Why they are alive and why they are not like me?
I understand the deepness of their dark eyes
They are not sad, proud and often they are motionless

We cross the valley and reach the mountains
Below a high peak we'll close our eyes
It's unreal to touch the earth
And to breathe dust flying through the wind
