We are again at a summer evening,
A delicate coolness in the air, the sky clear today,
A sound came from afar,
The sound of waves,
As if saying summer has ended, urging us to savor the shore where waves crash,
Perhaps this is why I suddenly miss summer evenings,
It is the sound of waves in my ear that reminds me of that moment,
And a day will come when I am once again at that summer evening,
unnoticed, it will pass.
The sound comes from afar, like a whisper.
It is your voice in my ear that reminds me of that moment,
And a day will come when you have already passed by me,
These weary eyes have not noticed it.
