Lingering in memory


On that day when our meeting began.
In that place where worries fade away,
where lightness spreads, like a heavenly plan.

Carefree and safe
that's how we feel there.
Complete peace and quiet, without any burdens.
Loneliness disappears, becoming togetherness.
Prejudices fade away, passing into the silence of time.

Peace is no cause for boredom, no disarming word.
Worries are foreign, have no place here.
What you did, said, or will do,
plays no role here, in the glow of the sun's heat.


Where our meeting once began
May the external traces fade and disappear
But memories will remain forever.

For whatever happens, whatever may decay
The memory remains, like a sparkling crystal

Nothing may be visible anymore, as if vanished in a dream
But the feelings that remain have prevailed.

So let us remember with a smile in our eyes,
the place where the sun makes us happy.
Because even if it sometimes only exists in our memories,
it has shown us how peace really works.
