-------

I shall bury a grape seed in the warm soil,
and I'll kiss the vine and gather ripe grapes, my reward,
and I'll gather my friends, and love in my heart I will rouse...
Otherwise, what's the purpose of living in this everlasting world?
  
Gather here, dear guests, I shall treat you,
tell me straight to my face the opinion of me that you hold,
The heavenly King will send me forgiveness for my transgressions…
Otherwise, what's the purpose of living in this everlasting world?
  
Dressed in dark crimson, my charming Dali will sing for me,
dressed in black and white, I will silently bow my head
I'll listen enchanted and I'll die from deep love and grief...
Otherwise, what's the purpose of living in this everlasting world?
  
When the sunset starts swirling and reaching for the corners,
May the images float, again and again may they swirl,
So that I may see a blue ox, a white eagle, and golden trout...
Otherwise, what's the purpose of living in this everlasting world?
