Min 'Iz Innawm Btisri'ni (From the height of sleep you steal me) letra

From the height of sleep
you steal me
in the far-off where I run
you precede me
I am at the end of earth my love
the earth walks through me
when I walk
how far will you follow me.

We had departed and your voice
died away
empty time bid me in
and when I closed the door on myself
I found you between me / and myself.

Draped over the sea
of oblivion
sleep has deserted me now
with everything else
but your face refused
to depart
when I try to see in
it drowns me.

Dance and laughter
in festive vigilance
surrounded by my friends
all the eyes are on me
because l'm looking for a new love.

The glass keeps falling
from my hand
alone among all
I see you
you steal from among them
you burn me with the ice of the past.
