“Long Lost Love”

I heard your voice,
My long lost love,
Heard you calling me,
And relentlessly followed it

Through the valleys of fantasy,
Down the peaks of the impossible,
Over the oceans of pride,
Along the rivers of scorn,
Across the forests of terror,

To find you lost in the swamp,
Led astray by a wicked swamp-witch.
Follow me to the shore of our
Lake of trust, the chest of miracles.

Fear no more, my long lost love,
My heart beats for you,
My love will heal you,
My soul will help you,
Only for one smile of your
Swift-flowing eyes of streams.

Look, my long lost love,
The first snow fell,
Covered the world in ever-calmness,
Rest in peace, Spring soon
Will come from the site of the dawn.

Listen, my long lost love,
To the sound of winter drums approaching,
The sleigh of Winter queen,
The ball of northern darkness,
A hound from the highlands,
All leave now.

The virgin white of the world
Is gone… all is fresh green now.
Rejoice now, my long lost love,
Open the flower-buds, smell their fragrance,
I will be waiting at the great oak,
My love will guard you,
My care will follow you,
My soul will show you the way back to me.

Follow the forest spirit,
My long lost love,
Look at the clear, warm sky,
Feast on the young world,
And come back to me,
Sit by my side,
Tell me what you’ve seen,
Share with me your happiness,
Give me your hand,
The little palm of a forest nymph.

I will show you our abode,
Among the ferns, moss an berries,
Under the ancient rock.

Aren’t you happy now?
Do you feel my joy?
Rejoice, jump and danc3,
Fill my heart with sweet relief,
And never leave me again,
I will always be here for you.
