"Please....sleep--for me."
In the night’s warm embrace;
Let all fears be resolved,
All tears wiped from your face….
Let the moon and the stars
Watch over your bedplace;
Let the wars of trước đó avatars
Fade out without trace....
Let the blanket of darkness
Put your weary eyes to rest,
Rid your mind of the madness
That puts bạn to the test—
Let the water of my love
Be, to you, the balm
Of healing, to lift your spirit above
And immerse your tim, trái tim with calm….
Let the sweetness of sleep
Free your soul from dominion;
Let your whole being sink deep
Into blissful oblivion!
Each night bạn are
Deep within my dream....
Your soft caress,
Your tenderness,
Your smile of moonlight gleam--
Enchanting eyes
That hypnotize
Electrify my soul;
Lips of passion--
Chain reaction--
bạn make my half-being whole!
Let the sun's warm touch in each new day,
And birdsong around bạn in its own way;
Let the tender caress of this airbender's breeze
That tinkles through the leaves of the trees;
Let your dreams that come with the moon's pearl light
And Ba Sing Se's lights that beam through the night;
Let the far-flung light of every star
Remind you: "How beautiful, how wonderful bạn are!"
I am weightless as a dove
In an airbender’s wake;
My very soul does shake,
Tremble,
Disassemble
As molecules of life
Reassemble
From the ashes of old strife,
Cradled as in Mother’s womb,
Yet freed from death’s icy tomb;
As I am drawn into Katara’s kiss,
As if drinking shadowless water, bliss-
Ful, after a century of thirst
Unquenched; the first
Drop alone sufficient for my being to burst
Forth to the fullest,
In the fullness of her embrace,
Transcending Time and Space…
So deep within the mantle of Avatar
Springs the life-giving water of Katara.
