A MOMENT OF BEAUTY

( A free translation by Lobsang Palden)

(Stanza):

Bright shines the moon in the darkness

Its reflection flickering and dancing on the sea,

Like the face of a beautiful girl,

That makes me sing this song of love:



(Refrain):

„Your face is so gentle,

Like the smoothness of the moon.

Your eyes so clear,

Like the clearness oft the water.

Your lips so tender,

Like the petals of a lotus.

Your teeth so white,

Like the pearls of the ocean.

Your body so pliant,

Like a bamboo in a storm.

Your hair so glossy

Like silk in the wind.“



(Stanza):

The image on the sea smiles,

And gives this secrecy of love as a reply:

„Your beautiful song of tenderness,

Brought tears to my eyes.



(Refrain):

But I am just a drawing on the water,

Just an illusion of your mind.

My beauty is just a wave on the surface,

Each moment it passes away.

Your love for me is just your mental projection,

Just a creation of your desire.



(Female voice):

From moment to moment,

I am dying.

Like the rainbow,

That fades away in emptiness.



But even though its so,

I beg you – my plea,

Please don`t forget me!

Never! Please!“
