I am not yours, not lost in you,

Not lost, although I long to be 

Lost as a candle lit at noon,

Lost as a snowflake in the sea.

 

You love me, and I find you still

A spirit beautiful and bright,

Yet I am I, who long to be

Lost as a light is lost in light.

 

Oh plunge me deep in love—put out

My senses, leave me deaf and blind, 

Swept by the tempest of your love,

A taper in a rushing wind.

 

我不屬於你，也不會在你裡面逝去，

不會逝去，雖然我渴望著，

如同蠟燭點燃於正午時分般逝去，

如同雪片消融在汪洋大海之中。

 

你愛我，而我發現你仍然是，

那美麗而聰慧的靈魂，

然而我就是我，那個渴望著

如同消失在光芒中的光。

 

哦！讓我深陷在愛裡-熄滅掉我的感覺

讓我變得又聾又盲，

被你愛的風暴橫掃而去，

有如疾風中的殘燭。
