I’m existing in candlelight.
Blaze twines the area round
and traces shades
to the walls of my chamber.
My hand like a shadow
reaches towards me from the wall.
Gloomily as fancy’s border

Flame is burnin’ for you
because I miss you!
Your voice I can’t hear
I can’t see you.
But you’re somewhere here
with me.
Just the two of us -
only

I would bend toward you
like the hand on the wall
(and) like the Moon to the hight
what is watching us
While we are sleeping
embraced in each other’s arms

Where are you?
I’m just watching the dancing flame and the and the candle sheds trears with me.

I’m the black wax
and you’re the flame.
I enliven you - you singe me.
And as I burn up
the both of us will burn to ashes
Love me!
Until you’re here
I am shinig in your light.
But if you leave me
I will decease finally.
