Translation:

 

I am the tears

Of his sorrow.

Of his joy.

Of his pain unrelenting.

Of his love eternal.

 

I am the voice

Of his heart.

Of his mind.

Of his hate.

Of all his dreams.

 

I am his body

When he hurts.

When he is strong.

When he kills.

When he makes love.

 

I am all that he is.

And he is all that I am.

We are not halves of a whole.

We are united, we are entwined.

We are immersed in our eternal oneness.

We are all.

We are nothing.
