O Lonely Night


1
For the land is barren, my beloved
And the sea's going dry
There's no joy in lonely nights
Since the second I took happiness
Into my arms

2
It is lonely at nights
Though the stars are twinkling
But then,
It is lonelier by day
'Cos there's no place to stay here,
Among the crowds

3
Dye me in red
The color you wear
If it doesn't suit me, then
Dye me in blue
As bright as the sky
And if it still doesn't suit me
Never mind my presence
I'd rather live in the shadow

4
My lonely days
Now I know
What it really feels like
Loneliness...

5
Perhaps,
It's a small thing to your eyes
Perhaps,
It's unworthy and common
Silly and whimsical
But,
It is one small happiness to my eyes
Sweet and tender
A miracle to one lonely heart

6
I regret it,
The moment I took it into my arms
It was once
My joy, my happiness
But, since everything is lost
It no longer stays
If I had never known it
Perhaps, I'll still have my joy
Sitting beside me

7
O my beloved
The land is barren
The sea is dry
Such a cruel deed
You did to me!
But still, old happiness
I will never be able to forget
So I still make a wish
If the spring ever comes
Would you once again be mine?

8
I'll savor the very last of loneliness
The more bitter it is
The sadder it will be
But, it feels like
There's something to it
An unspeakable thing
Or is it a kind of feeling?
It hurts, yet, intriguing
Making me wondering for long
What it'll taste like
Once the bitterness subsides

9
And I see that
The sun is setting
Another night
O lonely night
And another morning to come
If, if, and if I could wish
To stars, or moon, or sun
Or my very beloved God
I wish for morning to bring me back
My joy, my love, and my laughter
All of them,
Back into my arms
