"I left my body now/ Up to the sky I go
A falcon I seem with open wings
The soul soars above the grounds/ to the stars/ to the stars
Silently the great hall of light awaits
I lost myself to everything
An horizon of colour
Inner door of wisdom
I bow to the word of the beginning
Below the sun my heart remains
Won't rise above the road
For to your door it leads
Steps of wonder those that are yours
So much I see
The Universe in you
Could I be the water you drink?
Could I be the wind that caresses your golden hair?
Being everywhere can I be inside you?
Take my heart than/ I left it for you
It's yours forever who else could it belong to?
I pass by you/ but you cannot see me
I smile at you while you are sleeping
Will you ever know love of mine
That you were not alone tonight
Will you ever know that I slept by your side?"
