ALL FOR YOU 

Smooth opal clarity 

beyond the horizon, 

It is in the sea breeze 

and can be seen on the mountain. 

As a bright coral 

at the bottom of the sea, 

you're so wonderful 

I can not explain that. 

As the finest pearl 

more beautiful and more valuable, 

so is your face divine; 

I do not think about anything else. 

Wherever you are you see, 

I miss you every day, 

you know I think about you, 

singing by you and by you I cry. 

I look forward to you 

until the day I die 

and you follow me 

the same fate.
