You and me
We sit under the innocent moonlight
You lean over and whisper,

“Zum Mond und Zurück”
To the farthest constellation,
Where new miracles are discovered
Together

I am fixed in your orbit
I respond with a fragile smile and,

“Zur Sonne und Zurück”
To the greatest galaxy,
Even among the undying darkness
Together

You and Me
We look into a telescope
You point to a distant star and said,

“Zum Mond und Zurück,”
We can be content
Present, past, and future
Together

The sky foretells our kaleidoscopic future
as we stare at the glimmers of hope
I lean over and murmur,

“Zur Sonne und Zurück”
As long as the moon is there
We will always be
Together

**note: “Zum Mond und Zurück” and “Zur Sonne und Zurück” is German for “To the moon and back” and “To the sun and back”**
