Translation

At the end of the cycling seasons, I follow threads of misery.
Even the clear breeze gently strokes my cheeks.

The cloudless lapis-lazuli sky bears a nostalgic fragrance.
I pine for that summer, when you and I held hands.

Don’t forget that promise. Though I may wake from this dream, stay connected…

My heart is blooming a colour unique to you. My expanding heartbeats are like golden waves.
You laughed at my hands held high. Light shone through.
Watch over you, sunflower.

Once clearing the hill road, the shadows stretching straight out
headed for the sky and stood in a line. The clouds danced.

Don’t forget that warmth. Though I may wake from this dream, feel it…

My heart weeps at the dawn sky. Beauty blooms as far as the eye can see.
You were projected on my hands held high, full of light.
Watch over you, sunflower.
Watching over you.

when they are needs me, call me, coz always near

Feelings overflow from the wavering breeze. When we meet again somewhere, they will release the light tying us together.

My heart is blooming a colour unique to you. My expanding heartbeats are like golden waves.
You laughed at my hands held high. Light shone through.
Watch over you, sunflower.
