If I don’t have…..
If I don’t have eyes,
Oh, my friend,
In my dark world,
how can I find your sweet smile?
I can never be with you
to read the rosy clouds from the horizon,
to count the twinkling stars in the galaxy…..
If I don’t have ears,
Oh, my friend,
In my silent world,
how can I hear your joyful songs from flute?
I can never be with you
to listen to the trickling of creeks,
to hear the chirping of birds…..
If I don’t have voice,
Oh, my friend,
In my quiet world,
how can I whisper you my secrets?
I can never be with you
to sing with the echoes from the bottom of canyons,
to cheer with the whistles above the top of towers…..
If I don’t have arms
Oh, my friend,
In my hollow world,
how can I hold your warm hands?
I can never be with you
to pick mushrooms or nuts in the deep woods,
to braid a wreath with the olive branches…..
If I don’t have arms
Oh, my friend,
In my hollow world,
how can I hold your warm hands?
I can never be with you
to pick mushrooms or nuts in the deep woods,
to braid a wreath of dreams with the olive branches…..
If I don’t have legs
Oh, my friend,
In my supportless world,
how can I match your familiar steps?
I can never be with you
to kick the golden sand on the blue shorelines,
to chase butterflies in the green fields…..
If I don’t have heart
Oh, my friend,
In my cold world,
how can feel your friendly sentiments?
I can never be with you
to send our sympathy to the needy in unnoticed corners,
to deliver our best wishes to new lives…..
If I don’t have you,
Oh, my friend,
In my lonely world,
how can I live without you?
Everything is truly treasured to me,
But your friendship is everything to me.
