In My Paradise

When I think of you,

I close my eyes,

I'm lying down

Next to a stream.

In a desert, surrounded by endless grains of sand,

Warm beneath the fire of the sun above the land.

I see its ripples

I hear its trickles

It bubbles from time to time

The water - a crystal blue

Flowing gently against black rocks

It reflects your image.

When I listen,

It's your voice that sings first

When I dream,

It's your memory that wakes me first

When I breathe,

It's your scent that arises first

In every corner of my paradise,

You find your way.

When I close my eyes

I'm lying in my warm bed of sand

Listening to the tranquil lullaby that is your stream

Close your eyes and listen,

you will hear me.
