On his way to mars on a flying balloon
among the stars, over the blue lagoon
beyond the bright white-looking moon
echoing to bloom out of his old gloom,
floats a black-and-gray little raccoon.

I'll be less than I've shown,
though if I were more,
would it be known?

Perhaps it's always been this way,
in the end, that I couldn't be more
than I'd intend.

Now, I'll lay down,
close my eyes tight,
and dream of things
that bring me delight.

In life's portrait, what's yet to be,
oh, how I yearn for what's in me.

Never mind, I'll believe
as I close my eyes, in dreams,
I'll find where my spirit flies.

Above a cloudy starry sky,
songs echo
in the hidden snow,
a symphony on a journey
of a tear,
the blade of the steed.
The nights were not one...
but two nights together.

In the forest
unfolds a lady in red,
blood drips along the path,
eyes gaze upon her,
and the wolf howls
at the moon.

When she buries
the fruits of her past,
she wonders:
why was I red
and not blue like this fruit?
Now I will never know,
the grieve of my youth.
