If I could run yonder,
and all faith be cast into oblivion,
and all reality declares past tense
by my lips,
If I could fly to see the moon,
and bedazzle my fate with a fame
it now strongly beholds...
I shall never let go of the view,
the oceans shall be my bed,
twilight, my new lullaby,
sings evidently like peace,
I shall be unshaken as the sky,
play the melody of the stars,
and cast a spell
that makes all shadow wither;
darkness shall part,
and in light does my fortune bloom
my soul becomes the spring,
the sun smiles truly,
because my queen rises like
the lightning and my heart
pounds with the audacity of thunder
I shall give praise to emotion,
flows boundless like the ocean,
because she is my fortress
my immortal princess,
that waltzs with me,
in the blissful ballroom of love.
