You held the lilies, blue as an ocean
Oh your eyes, ever so golden
Beneath the nine infinities, above trillion stars
Your song was all I ever saw

My scarf, you wore it like an ornament
Oh why, it had me weeping?
Through eight seas, a billion whales
My tears were all you ever heard

Those raven birds you asked me to hear
Beneath the clouds that flew in purple whites
Across sixteen galaxies, a million violins
I touched all the skies you loved

Your eyes made of golden planets
Those you asked me to embrace with love
Oh, all the cherry blossoms and ten dandelions
I shall embrace all your gold and scars
