Devotion by Ayuo You are the space in which my spirit dances in. Circling under stars of love and melting in the light I close my eyes And the light within Becomes a part of everywhere We are the ocean filled with streams of love, That dances onwards spinning, turning into life. What we are now, And the universe. It grew from this, Cell by cell We are the space between the sea and the moon. The songs they flow in us, from this silvery light. And the moon, she whispers, A secret tune. And you long to sing to her, Your song of devotion. And love is reality. The drum, the poetry. The inward music. The ocean in you. ------------------ 祈りきみの空間で、ぼくの魂は舞う愛の星座をめぐり、光に溶け込みながら眼を閉じると内なる光があらゆる場所にみちみちてぼくたちは愛で潮流で満たされた海踊りはつづくまわりながらいのちに変りいまここにあることそして世界はここから成長する細胞のひとつひとつがぼくたちは海と月のあいだの空間歌は、この白銀の光から出て　心の内側をめぐる月はささやく秘密の調べそして月に歌いかけようと待ち焦がれるきみの祈りの歌星座はめぐり夜ごと愛に恥じらいながらきみはぼくの眼をひらいてその光のなかに消える愛は現実そのリズム、その詩内なる音楽きみの内部にある海
