Leave the window open
I see the wheat field from here
I see the reaper sowing the seeds
He dreams of the cornfield full
...
You came into my life
Like
A blazing star or a comet
You filled my heart with joy
...
Good morning! which window to open?
Zephyr is blowing all around…
How long at that celestial light
The angels danced in unison
...
Let me be with you here
With me my dear
Looking at me with all your care
The wind moves her arms
...
