Even in air, we kindle our own lamps,
Embracing the heart's desire as our own.
Even in air, we kindle our own lamps,
Yes, we kindle them.
Though innocent, we bear the blame of loyalty,
We ignite not lamps, but our very hearts.
Though innocent, we bear the blame of loyalty,
Yes, loyalty we embrace.

To mirror cruelty, poison must face poison,
It destroys, it destroys...
The one who plays, despairing,
Even winning, still, he loses, loses.
In the path of love, the steps have advanced,
Now, they cannot be halted by any force.
Cannot be halted, cannot be halted, yes.
Such self-respect, that our heads,
May be severed, but they cannot bow.
Such self-respect, that our heads,
May be severed, but they cannot bow.
If the glass is fragile,
A hundred times it may shatter, no matter.
We from stones, too, create a mirror.
Even in air, we kindle our own lamps,
Yes, we kindle them.

Speaking is not a crime, but
Silence, too, holds a life.
Holds a life, yes, holds a life.
Yes, yes, oh yes, holds a life.
Being the honor of the entire garden,
Every bud is voiceless.
If the heart's state were revealed today,
If the tale of sorrow were expressed.
If the heart's state were revealed today,
If the tale of sorrow were expressed,
Either the heart would leap onto the lips,
Or my heart, too, would gain a tongue.
No sound of desire, no form at all,
And if there were, we hide it in our hearts.
And if there were, we hide it in our hearts.
Though innocent, we bear the blame of loyalty,
Yes, loyalty we embrace.

We are masters of our own will, no illusion of desire we shall accept.
No illusion we shall accept.
If paradise is given through begging,
Such charity we shall not accept, we shall not accept.
Now, what we choose is our fate,
Now, what we choose is our fate.
Who can meet our gaze?
Who can meet our gaze, yes?
We take pride in our own courage,
To seize is what we know.
We take pride in our own courage,
To seize is what we know.
What need is there for permission from the eyes of the cupbearer?
Those with courage, they lift the cup.
Even in air, we kindle our own lamps,
Yes, we kindle them.

Though a thousand lamps are lit, still, the dawn's light does not form.
Does not form, yes, does not form, yes, yes, no, no, does not form.
Pain, increasing, becomes medicine, but a flaw it does not become.
Shadows swim in water, but no stain is seen.
Shadows swim in water, but no stain is seen.
One face of the mirror is this, in which no face is seen.
One face of the mirror is this, in which no face is seen.
We seek no healers, no balm's touch,
Instead, we relish the pleasure of the piercing arrows.
Though innocent, we bear the blame of loyalty,
We ignite not lamps, but our very hearts.
We ignite not lamps, we ignite not lamps,
We ignite not lamps, but our very hearts.
Though innocent, we bear the blame of loyalty.
