In that soil and in darkness too long you have lain
And from the eyes of hunters you’ve hid your beauty.
Therefore, because of this many have searched in vain
But I don’t want to fail and weep sorrowfully.
Wasted efforts in search for you I want no more!
I have already struggled with sorrow enough.
Desiring greatly to see fruits of my labor
Because the journey to possessing you is tough.
Unfold O ye buried treasures and come to me
Without the curse of suffering and sacrifice!
The dream of having you, in real life let it be;
I want to have you and behold you with my eyes.
In my hands I cannot wait to hold you dearly
And in my life I cannot wait for you to stay.
I know that I’ll find success while in this journey
And shall not be under the clouds silver and gray.
You are mine and I’ll cherish you with great delight
As I enjoy the rest of the rays of sunlight!
