What was seen, has been erased [literally: has been extinguished]
What has disappeared, has been remembered
I am standing by the ends of the earth,
listening for Spring [bad word] [literally: listening to the soil to sprout]

Waiting for the flowers to bloom,
its fragrance lingering for the years [bad word] 
There is no lighthouse by the shore,
but I still look faraway into the distance

Night falls, 
I've grown old [literally: my hair has turned white]
Tightly holding onto my torch
 [bad word] for me,
I tell myself,
I'm not afraid, I love him very much
