  • Above the Hill of Failure

    With the sunrise comes a hope of tenderly flying dreams —
    some already on their way, some still forming their shape. With the fall of night, darkness surrenders its soul to light, and the morning shines with a ray of success;
    and through the troubles of life, you may fall once, but you rise forever again, above the hill of any failure.

  • Different Every Time

    When I look at it from above, it looks one way;
    when I look from below, it looks another. And all I understand is this: it is all about life —
    and it is different every time.

  • If I Wore Wings

    Though I wish the destination could be reached in flight —
    to wear a pair of wings and dive into the sky —
    would it be as joyous, would it still be your cherished happiness, any more?

  • A Day Is Lost

    Passing away with the dusk, wondering a while about the day;
    I hope to see the dawn again —
    but after the darkness, a day is lost.

  • Herald of a New Life

    I am not stepping aside;
    I am the end of sorrow and the beginning of a new world. From hope to higher hope I aspire —
    the world is not the same each day;
    it varies, but never disguises. I am the herald of a new life, and the memory of one time.

  • The Limit Is the Endless Sky

    Let me fly, and swing along the line;
    hold me tight, or I’ll say goodbye. Catch me slyly, or I am the master of the sky;
    give me hope, and let the air carry me —
    I know my heights, but the limit is the endless sky.

  • ज़िन्दगी

    है छोटी-सी उड़ान, यह चलती-फिरती ज़िन्दगी,
    सागर से गहरी, आसमान से ऊँची — कुछ लफ़्ज़ों की ज़िन्दगी।
    किसी की चाहत की, किसी की मुस्कुराहट की हस्ती — यह ज़िन्दगी,
    रंग बदलती, सुरों में सजती, नन्ही-सी ज़िन्दगी।

  • The Girl

    She has the most charming smile in my life,
    and how, with her eyes, she rules my heart;
    without uttering a single word, she owns my everything —
    she is the girl I love most in the world.

    She is no magician, and no player,
    and she doesn’t even know the world of hate;
    how a single touch of hers is enough to complete me —
    she is the girl I have always desired.

    She holds me in her caress and warmth,
    and calls me mad in her charm;
    but I know what she feels for me,
    and how, every second, she misses me —
    she is the only girl I hold in my heart.

    With just one kiss, she can lift me into heaven,
    and with one smile, out of sadness;
    she knows it all, yet loves to hear it from me again —
    she is the girl I never want to lose in my life.

  • I’m Falling Again

    I walked past my barriers and flew,
    moving through the world I always desired;
    slowly it is drawing close to reality,
    and I am falling in love with life again.

    I poured myself deep into a dream,
    drank down all the hate, and was left with peace;
    this time it is not the same old faith —
    and I am falling in love with life again.

    No longer measuring my needs and pride,
    wondering what it all would have been before,
    fiery-eyed, and waiting for thee —
    and I am falling in love with life again.

    There is still a way to go, a shore to reach;
    loving every second, I live a little more.
    I come around alone, but not the same —
    and I am falling in love with life again.

  • Silence

    When peace takes hold of me,
    far from anything I desire,
    alone, at my very best —
    I hear the words of silence.

    I ask: is this it?
    My soul echoes back: live it.
    Sitting in the corner, unfelt,
    I feel the power of silence.

    I lay my speech bare,
    with a tender flinch;
    but something empowered me,
    and I found it in a crowd of silence.

    I am lowered by the feelings,
    and settle back into the voyage;
    but a charisma is meant to happen —
    and I am travelling through peace, in silence.
