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
