Thread of Love

I’ve wrapped the thread of love around you,

Reading your name, hidden from you.

I’ve tied my breaths strongly in all the knots,

You won’t be able to untie them without cutting off my breath.

In the palace of fidelity, I’ve adorned,

A heart that I’ve turned to stone.

Thinking that no joy would reach me,

I’ve hidden myself behind sorrows.

I’ve never extinguished the light,

If the lamp goes out, I’ve lit my heart.

I’m burning in the fire of love,

Without you, I can’t live now.

I live in your memories, I die in your memories,

Without you, nothing makes sense to me.

I’ve drowned in the depths of love,

I’ve lost myself in your love.

I see my future in your eyes,

Without you, nothing is mine.

I cry in your memories, I laugh in your memories,

I live in your love.
