197. There Are Numerous Strings

Refrain:
There are numerous strings in your lute,
let me add my own among them.

1 Then when you smite your chords,
my heart will break its silence,
and my heart will be one with your song. [Refrain]

2 Amidst your numberless stars,
let me place my own little lamp. [Refrain]

3 In the dance of your festival of lights
my heart will throb and my life
will be one with your smile. [Refrain]
