					English translation 
					
					O birds of passage, show me the way if you hear my voice.
Lead me to the distant land that my life remembers.Ocean rumbles, please let my heart be free from fear.
Sing for me, in the tongue of the land you were born in.Beautiful person, if you look into my eyes, beautiful person,
You'll see in your eyes, the same flames of hope are lit.The flowers in that land we cannot yet see, are like the sound of ringing bells.
O my yearnings, spread your wings and fly with the westward breeze.Put your palm over mine and feel the beating of our hearts.
Tell me, what is it that separates us from each other?Dearest person, when the time comes, dearest person,
In the light, loneliness will melt away in a warm embrace.O birds of passage, show me the way if you hear my voice.
Through the fog, the night, the storm, my love cannot be taken.
So people may understand others like the birds fly across oceans,
Lead us to the distant land that our lives remember.I long for your touch. O my yearnings, embrace me.May my feelings reach you, in the tongue of the land I was born in.
Beautiful person, I love you, beautiful person.
Beautiful person, I love you, beautiful person.
