Have you seen the shimmering rain in moonlight
how it trembles with pain in dazzling moonlight?
Bright stars still shine high in the blue-black sky
despite the brilliant reign of swollen moon’s light
In this fragrant field tonight I want to see
desire in your eyes, hot flames in cold moonlight
Then through the drizzling rain, your deep voice whispers
a plea, ‘Come to me again in our moon’s light’
Following my heart to the place I call home
I see you, my swain in silvery moonlight
I am Linda, ardent lover forever
I kiss your lips, go insane in stark moonlight
