Love Is My Faith
I celebrate beauty
and goodness, just,
a breeze of a silk sleep,
let him take me there.
Where,
white angels dream,
and the harps of peace play ...
My life,
With a bright soul
I want to be crowned
With bitter destinies end
In the gardens of paradise.
From the source
I want to drink faith
Of all pure hearts,
With hope and consolation
I want to be friend
For all unhappy people
Like a butterfly,
Flower of summer,
Let them to celebrate
And that beautiful Orion
To illuminates blue dreams.
Love is my faith
My children are
Breastfeed by beautiful faith
With the shackles
If the day of slavery
And therefore,
I want to count.
The rage of unreasonable,
Let it all fall on me,
If in my heart
In rhythmic melodies of love,
To stop beating me.
If the music of love
I won’t to be able
Just to hear!!!
The Beauty Of The Universe
Just love
Truth and justice
They are my life,
The joy of my heart.
That beauty
And the heart
Of the Earth needs,
The beauty of the universe
From the depths of the sky.
In words, that's what
I'm talking about,
I burn with them
And in them.
Mother
Timeless mother,
You who walked on thorns
And emotions of the heart,
You dawned me at dawn.
You, who illuminated the roads for me
With the golden glow,
The beauty of VENUS
And the power of the universe gate.
I gladly carry you in my heart
The essence of your strength
I ask for it.
You are my source and refuge,
That awaits me,
The energy that drives me,
The sacred silence of the echo.
The brightest star in my sky,
An amulet, which doesn’t give
Evil forces!
You're an in comprehensible
Secret and my timeless,
Angelic melody of my time.
With your sails,
I sail the sea of my life
With your inspiration,
I drink the abundance of beauty…
MOTHER, I shout alleluia to you
And I write a song of the heart!
