MASTER OF MY LOVE

At dawn, my heart set out on its path
Mist wrapped the mountains in thick veils
My heart looked toward hope
While my restless eyes stared into the unknown

My heart made love its guide
My life turned to ashes, scattered by the wind
Still, my heart longs to live in you, unyielding
It chases love, daring time itself

Don’t count the years — they hold no worth
If we can meet, time loses meaning
I’d trade a butterfly’s life for love — what use are numbers?
It’s true — my heart is white as a daisy for you

My beloved rides a horse, the saddle bright red
Her braided hair woven into the tassels
Easy now, wild foal — don’t let her fall
Dismount, my beloved — I’ll give you water by the handful

The road is rough, the mountains steep, mist veils every path
Storms have raged within my heart
In my darkest nights, you were my hope
You lit my nights, my love

When I think of you, the seasons feel hollow
What are months worth, if reunion is all that matters?
I swear to you — I’ve buried all my regrets
I come to you bare, like a newborn — stripped of every excuse
