If I were an artist, I would paint you one sky
I would tell you my truth and never lie
If I were a dancer, I would dance one dance for your eyes
Performing beneath the most beautiful blue of skies
If I were a cook, I would bake you one treat
Irresistibly warm, delicious and lightly sweet
If I were a musician, I would play you one song
To carry out the sound of peace is never wrong
If I were a writer, I would write you one poem
For you to stick inside your pocket and carry home
For today I am just one person on this earth
One life destined to be all for you, since birth

I would like to translate this poem
If I were a song, I would stay on your lips If I were a color, I would kiss you finger tips If I were a scent, I would kiss your breath If I were life, I would deny you death
