Amidst this exile's distant shore, You are the only one, I find, Who holds a power to restore, A solace for this refugee mind. With but a look, my heart takes flight, From memories of the Land of Snows, You bring a warmth, a hopeful light, Where only shadow often grows. No other face, in times now past, Could touch my spirit in this way, Across the miles our fates were cast, Until you brightened up my day. I see a kindness in your gaze, A comfort in this foreign place. Through lonely nights and hazy days, I yearn to know your gentle grace. Though words may falter on my tongue, And exile's weight still lingers near, For you, a silent hope is sung, A love that conquers every fear. It's only you, in this wide sphere, Where we are strangers, far apart, A connection, holding ever dear, A flame ignited in my heart. It's only you who can impart, A joy that feels so pure and true, A happiness to restart, A world made beautiful by you. So it is you, and you alone, Whose power moves me, deep inside. A feeling like faith newly shown, A truth where hope and love reside.
