I wake up to see you Standing in the morning light. I reach out to touch you, But all that I get Is a memory, and yet, I feel you are near But my vision's not clear.Yet I have your image always in view, I'm forever thinking of you. I feel you watching me Quietly in the morning light. I try to find some peace of mind In knowing you're where You don't have a care. I take comfort that You no longer haveTo keep living in a world full of pain, But I ache to see you again. On rainy days I sit and think of our lost years, The times we spent apart just fill my eyes with tears, But fields of wild flowers and yellow butterflies Remind me of you and make me smile. I walk in to your room And stand there in the morning light. I cherish the memories: Your robe on a , The pictures you took. I can smell your perfume On the clothes in your room.Everything I see makes your loss hard to bear, I see you everywhere. I live now in a still world Listening in the morning light. I strain to hear a familiar voice But all that I hear Is the sound of my tears. Then from a far place Comes the slightest trace Of your voice saying, "I'm all right, you see, and I always will be."
뉴에이지 음악계의 베토벤이라 불리우는 Yanni. 야니의 음악에는 심미주의, 신비주의, 감상주의의 요소들이 적절히 배합되어 있고 남성적인 힘이 내제되어 있어 강렬하면서도 스케일이 큰 웅장함을 맛볼 수 있습니다. 여기에 전통, 민속음악으로부터 영향받은 감정 위주의 경향이 가세해 특징적인 호소력이 그의 음악의 주가 됩니다. 조용하고 평화로운 느낌이 드는 One Man's Dream (어떤이의 꿈)은 서정적인 멜로디속에 녹아있는 아름다운 슬픔이 자연스레 마음속으로 흘러들어오는듯 합니다.
Sous le dome epais Ou le blanc jasmin A la rose soassemble, Sur la rive en fleurs, Riant au matin, Viens, descendons ensemble. Doucement glissons; De son flot charmant Suivons le courant Fuyant; Dans Loonde fremissante. Doune main nonchalante, Viens, gagnons le bord Ou la souree dort. Et looiseau, Looiseau chante. Sous le dome epais, Sous le blanc jasmin, Ah! descendons ensemble!
English translation:
Under a dome of white jasmine With the roses entwined together On a river bank covered with flowers laughing in the morning Gently floating on it's charming risings On the river's current On the shining waves One hand reaches Reaches for the bank Where the spring sleeps and The birds, the birds sing. Under a dome of white jasmine Ah! calling us Together! Under a dome of white jasmine With the roses entwined together On a river bank covered with flowers laughing in the morning Let us descend together Gently floating on it's charming risings, On the river's current On the shining waves, One hand reaches, Reaches for the bank, Where the spring sleeps, And the birds, the birds sing. Under a dome of white jasmine Ah! calling us Together!
