Princess
Prince… the ancient moon has returned tonight,
Carrying its cool light to the heavens above.
I knew you were coming,
For your fragrance mingled with the blossoms’ breath.
Prince
Princess… I am heir to the royal crown,
Yet I cast it aside for you—
You, who gather Asoka flowers
In the silent grove of love.
Princess
Prince… the ancient monsoon still falls,
Pouring its song upon the heavenly sky.
I have waited only for you,
To be warmed within your arms.
Prince
Princess… I could have drunk the royal wine,
Yet I set it aside to taste your lips,
To lose myself in the sweetness of you,
Intoxicated by love alone.
Princess
Prince… the ancient moon has returned tonight,
Carrying its cool light to the heavens above.
I knew you were coming,
For your fragrance mingled with the blossoms’ breath.
