Dark forests, dark dawns

Dark forests, dark dawns Whisper the way to bright seas. In the moonlight, only we We walk home along a path on a night road. A night road, a golden river, And an old white swan floats there. It flaps its wings, it wants to fly, But its wings, bound by heavy copper, cannot forever. The swan cries, the swan floats And sings a song of its sad love. The moon shines right into our eyes, And around us, only the whisper of the wind and dew. I quietly sing a song for you About how infinitely I love you. Only we, only we On the night road, we keep our dreams. Here we are, in my warm, bright home, At the table together, and the world outside the window. I picked up the guitar, touched a string, And we sang softly in the light of this beautiful moon. The river is dark, but the moon is bright, The swan swims, and my love is alone. Alone in the cold water, And I drown in your warmth. If he ever finds wings And rises to the sky over the river, Let him carry my sorrow away, So that only the starry night remains. The night road, the golden river, And an old white swan swims there. He will spread his wings and be able to fly, When the heavy copper melts. The swan no longer cries, the swan swims, And sings his song of love.
