Stars of the South

I long for the same night
along the stars of south
where I first saw you
that air, along the ocean
and then we returned
under the stars of north
only to live in lands
separated by big seas
I long for green prairies
along which you live
as I go over the hills
to catch glimpse of you
the grass is green here
but you remain far
ah the stars see here
under you I don't see her
better was the place
far far away from you
where I could see her
each dawn and dusk
under the stars of south
I now live in a desert
where only thing clear
is this sand and the stars
O Stars you are so different
that may be beloved
does not like your ways
and does not come here
to give me a glimpse
How much I may wish
for house across your river
meandering through prairies
across the greens of land
knocking at the footsteps
where you awake each day
for my eyes to catch the sun
and each night as I kiss
good bye to your eye lids
I know I will sleep peacefully
like I did under stars of south
but then this is not the case
stars of north have betrayed
how much do I wish for us
you and I my love to
once again travel that far
and if stars of north fail us
we meet under stars of south
