lyrics
Here I am seeking a flower
untouched by the world, with a faithful manner.
It is up high, so I must go there now
even if it takes my entire life.
The light of love lights up the path I walk.
I'm not alone, in spite of all the stones;
as well as thorns that try to obstruct the way
of the firm goal of living beyond this day.
Oh, that I could word such a thing!
(Oh) if one such flower, I could reach!
But you should not despair, for the time will someday come.
In which what you now seek, you'll finally have found,
you have found.
The way is full of voices that say:
"It's that one flower." "It's that one over there."
Yet I keep going on with firm conviction
while walking along the path of wisdom.
My heart will not give up on this quest.
The fight is still far from being over.
It is now time to push oneself on.
Now is the time to fight for what you long.
The awaited time is not yet, but it will not take long.
All your dreams and desires will soon real become,
real become, oh, real become.
