Not long ago, on a night like this
you hugged me, to let me go
and we separated, to lands far away
but the stars, the nights, that were there
still remain, the way they were
longing for that embrace, again
Still hear the sound of that night
still feel the embrace of your hands
tight hold of your arms around me
as the bud covers all its petals
with colors and fragrance hidden
and then in a moment we separated
but in that moment we were together
i carried with me your essence, aroma
that still keeps my days fragrant
that keeps my heart beating
but then with each day, I long
for your embrace again, my love
to hear the sound of that night
that glitter of stars all over again
because that sound is familier
it comes with your essence, presence
this night, these stars of the sky here
though may look the same as then
but they do not have the same
life as they had with you around
O love, beloved, you may not know
but I have lived so far just hoping
to meet you and hold you once again
never to let you go, anywhere far
hold you again but this time forever
on a night like this, forever
It's like poet had lived his whole life in a moment :)
