If the heart's yearning held sway,
Each thing would rise to greet me,
If the heart's yearning held sway,
Each thing would rise to greet me,
Each thing would rise to greet me.
Should I take but two steps toward the goal,
Should I take but two steps toward the goal,
The destination would appear.
If the heart's yearning held sway.
Oh, Flame, by the moth's vow,
For my sake, do this one thing,
Oh, Flame, by the moth's vow,
For my sake, do this one thing,
For my sake, do this one thing:
At that moment, blaze forth, burst in bloom,
When the master of the gathering arrives.
Each thing would rise to greet me,
The destination would appear.
If the heart's yearning held sway.
Oh, the heart's desire, even so, go on,
I journey toward their gathering,
Oh, the heart's desire, even so, go on,
I journey toward their gathering,
I journey toward their gathering.
Surprise me then, at that hour,
Surprise me then, at that hour,
When the gathering's color arrives.
Each thing would rise to greet me,
The destination would appear.
If the heart's yearning held sway,
Each thing would rise to greet me,
Should I take but two steps toward the goal,
Should I take but two steps toward the goal,
The destination would appear.
If the heart's yearning held sway.
