I light this candle

with a wish

that I may travel on

to a higher place



I light this candle

at the time

of passing through a stage

let go and I move on

into the golden age



Chorus:



All my love

will melt the stone

held in a friendly hand

across the mountains

to the sea

the wind will kiss the sand



I light this candle

for my love

who hardly says a word

he looks with telling eyes

on the wings of snow white birds



I light this candle

with a thought

of how my life has grown

friends who gave hope and love

when I was far from home



Chorus
