Solaris

A)     

1.      If only I could bring back to life

2.      All the good times of great happiness

3.      The beloved people whom I used to know

4.      Those who are gone and those who will come

5.      I can see their faces reflected on a stream

6.      Lying on the bed of a profound thought

7.      On the surface of an extraordinary planet.

B)     

8.      Live memories of a thriving biosphere

9.      Glittering with some kind of viscous light

10.  By tentacles of bright rays I am surrounded

11.  Moving in the currents of all parallel lives

12.  I feel so weightless floating with no effort

13.  Finding myself awakened in my own sleep

14.  Having my eyes open dreaming in a dream.

C)     

15.  And in this dream she comes and tells me

16.  That she can make come true whatever I wish

17.  Reincarnating herself to a girl I used to know

18.  Being able to reproduce herself again and again

19.  As a real fantasy which cannot be erased

20.  As if all bad memories forever were dissolved

21.  As if there was no crime lovers could commit.

D)     

22.  There is no living being exempt from passion

23.  From all the pain and suffering of the soul

24.  Hanging around stranded searching for a meaning

25.  Until the unfulfilled desire will find some relief

26.  Walking on the predetermined path of destiny

27.  Learning how to make use of our free will

28.  Making another wary step closer to immortality.

E)      

29.  Immortal images of mortal beings

30.  Can only be seen through eternal eyes

31.  We feel the endless fall as we drip inside

32.  The biosphere which grows bigger

33.  Delving in the dream the truth is getting clearer

34.  Falling in a waterfall with starry features

35.  Flowing in the veins of all the living creatures.

F)      

36.  Don’t be afraid of such a revelation

37.  We all believe in ghosts we have to admit

38.  Seeking all our life the things which haunt us

39.  Searching for the knowledge that will ever be

40.  Sitting by the waters of a mystic spring

41.  Listening to the whispers of the unknown

42.  As the flowing stream stretches our limits.

G)     

43.  In the heart of things there’s a ticking clock

44.  There is no space or time as our thoughts unfold

45.  Folding back into a point of infinite density

46.  While our little starship is orbiting a black hole

47.  With a burst of darkness the morning comes

48.  Opening the window our thought again will fly

49.  From high above we can see the Ocean-

50.  There’s an island emerging in the waves.
