These eyes across from me - kaleidoscope of fire.
These eyes across from me - warmer and ever brighter.
These eyes across from me - the color of tea.
These eyes across from me - what? What it may be?

Maybe, maybe I fall
Into sentiments and woe.
These eyes across from me
Shattering my free will.

And so the fate has joined, and so the fate has joined,
And so the fate has joined us.
Only do not betray, only do not betray,
Only don't turn away eyes.

These eyes across from me - may all years rush by.
These eyes across from me - now and for all time.
These eyes across from me - and there is no more end.
These eyes across from me - my silent friend.

Maybe, I do not know
If I'll find joy or sorrow.
Haunting me endlessly -
These eyes across from me.

And so the fate has joined, and so the fate has joined,
And so the fate has joined us.
Only do not betray, only do not betray,
Only don't turn away eyes.
