Don't ask me to describe you,
I will start explaining why the world is so beautiful.
Don't ask me to look into your eyes,
I will start reprimanding the birds for their hollowness.
Don't ask me to follow the trail of your appearance,
The clouds will come down to swim in your hair.
Don't ask me anything regarding you,
The world will never worship anybody else again.
Insurmountable sky, but when I look into your eyes,
I can see farther than the horizon.
Irrepressible storm, but your hand guides me home,
And the pathway seems to lighten up for me.
O the last rays of the Sun, you can take all that you can,
But you can never take away the unhindered hope that is all mine.
You can never take away the love
That cherishes its belongingness in the dark and dawn.
