Tell me O waves of this infinite sea
Is this a woman for me?
Search for belonging in
the grotto of green.
Tell me O moon of the sleeping sky
Is this a woman for me?
Search for belonging in
the celestial bed.
Tell me O earth where I stand each day
Is this a woman for me?
Search for belonging in
the field of grass.
Tell me O woman that I wish to know
Are you the one for me?
Look for me in the lines of a poem.
