Golden droplets of the sea water Mist my hands and hair with sighs From mountains of flourishing splendor Far away from battle-scarred grounds Bring me to sea Where all through the way Fishes delight And corals in sight Catch up in time To rest on the rails Dissolving in thoughts Of pleasures surrendered Moving in lines Choreographed by the wind Sky-cloaked And sun-soled And fishermen’s nets Living like creatures Adorned by starfishes Forgotten in time… Just relying on compasses To never get lost You and I, Our ships gliding Through the night Both never knowing We’ve come face to face Both of us longing Tranquility’s strength Lost in our own thoughts Or company’s joy Never alone and yet, So alone…… Denied by the truth In lands that we live Grievously grieving Though laughing in vain Hiding, pretending As masters behave Only at sea Do we begin to see You were a lover Who sailed through the seas I am a dreamer Who sees through the sail Never together we were, And never to be Two fields divided In two roads diverted I’m strange to be longing For someone not known Strange that I ponder What lies yonder Thoughts of you So clearly I see Thoughts of the night Then, your images flee Only at sea Do we really Begin to see……..

Only at Sea
Golden droplets of the sea water Mist my hands and hair with sighs From mountains of flourishing splendor Far away from battle-scarred grounds Bring me to sea Where all through the way Fishes delight And corals in sight Catch up in time To rest on the rails Dissolving in thoughts Of pleasures surrendered Moving in lines Choreographed by the wind Sky-cloaked And sun-soled And fishermen’s nets Living like creatures Adorned by starfishes Forgotten in time… Just relying on compasses To never get lost You and I, Our ships gliding Through the night Both never knowing We’ve come face to face Both of us longing Tranquility’s strength Lost in our own thoughts Or company’s joy Never alone and yet, So alone…… Denied by the truth In lands that we live Grievously grieving Though laughing in vain Hiding, pretending As masters behave Only at sea Do we begin to see You were a lover Who sailed through the seas I am a dreamer Who sees through the sail Never together we were, And never to be Two fields divided In two roads diverted I’m strange to be longing For someone not known Strange that I ponder What lies yonder Thoughts of you So clearly I see Thoughts of the night Then, your images flee Only at sea Do we really Begin to see……..
