Oh, my beloved, so unaware,
Lost in moonlight's endless stare.
All night he gazes, lost and gone,
My soul consumed, before the dawn.
All night he revels, wild and free,
Burning my heart, eternally.
Oh, my beloved, so naive,
Lost in moonlight, I grieve.
My anklets sing a whispered plea,
My anklets sing for him and me,
He hears the cuckoo's lonely call,
He turns away, ignoring all.
He looks again, so callous, cold,
My heart's desires, untold.
My dreams are crushed, my spirit sighs,
My love calls out beneath the skies.
Oh, my beloved, so unaware,
Lost in moonlight's endless stare.
Why does my heart beat fast and deep?
Why does my heart its secrets keep?
Is he, my love, in torment too?
Why do my eyes thirst for you?
Oh, the hours of our embrace,
When will we meet face to face?
A tempest rages in my breast,
When will my soul find its rest?
Oh, my beloved, so unaware,
Lost in moonlight's endless stare.
Oh, my beloved, so unaware,
Lost in moonlight's endless stare.
My soul consumed, before the dawn.
All night he revels, wild and gone,
All night he revels, wild and free.
All night he revels, eternally.
