Oh stranger, there you sit in one corner of the world,
Here I sit in another corner, eyeing you from top to bottom.
Oh stranger, there you look elegantly outside the window towards the beautiful world,
Here I look peeking towards you.
You look happy to be in this world of cruelty,
You look enthusiastic towards those cruel men,
Who only have one goal in mind whenever they look at you,
Oh stranger, walk this path of life a little slow, for there are a lot of crocodiles to eat you alive.
Tread carefully the path of love, oh stranger,
For you might break your heart,
Live carefully the life of limited days, oh my stranger,
For the days in this world is limited, might shatter your dreams apart.
Hold my hand once, once for all my life,
Trust me once, once for all my life,
Come with me to the place where I'll make all your dreams into reality,
Come with me where love will be a never ending game.
Oh my stranger, I sit here with brokenness inside me,
Do You sit there with yours,
I sit here with a thousand thoughts about you,
Do you sit there with yours about me.
If you leave today, for forever, I won't be able to find you,
I'll ask the wind, I'll ask the sky,
Where's the stranger with angelic beauty?
Where's the stranger with the brightness of a goddess?
