Though we may vanish, you and I,
Though we may fade, beneath the sky,
Our echoes in the world will reside,
Though we may vanish, side by side.
Our living breaths, entwined as one,
In death's embrace, our course is run.
Though we may vanish, you and I,
Our echoes in the world will fly.
If eyelids lift, a silken screen,
I see you near, my vibrant queen.
If lashes fall, a twilight's grace,
My eyes behold your loving face.
Closed or open, eyes that see,
Your visions are my destiny.
Though we may vanish, you and I,
Our echoes in the world will lie.
Do not depart, and leave me lone,
From sight, my love, do not be flown.
In this, my heart finds sweet release,
Let us, today, this vow increase:
While breath remains, a precious thread,
Each other's strength, forever wed.
Though we may vanish, you and I,
Our echoes in the world will sigh.
Two bodies, yes, but soul is one,
For lovers true, this course is spun.
To live as one, a heart's desire,
To die as one, a burning fire.
On earth, as lovers, we remain,
In heavens, stars, we'll gleam again.
Though we may vanish, you and I,
Our echoes in the world will cry.
Our living breaths, entwined as one,
In death's embrace, our course is run.
Though we may vanish, you and I,
Our echoes in the world will lie.
Our echoes in the world will be.
