I light this candle
with a wish
that I may travel on
to a higher place
I light this candle
at the time
of passing through a stage
let go and I move on
into the golden age
[Chorus:]
All my love
will melt the stone
held in a friendly hand
across the mountains
to the sea
the wind will kiss the sand
I light this candle
for my love
who hardly says a word
he looks with telling eyes
on the wings of snow white birds
I light this candle
with a thought
of how my life has grown
friends who gave hope and love
when I was far from home
[Chorus]
