Deep Inside

Along the seashore, I walk
With their magic, those trees embrace me
They swing me
Between their braches I roll
Within my chest, my heart rolls

Within the streets, I walk
They contain me, they settle me
They feed me their beauty
I tremble; my veins shiver
The streets cover my quivering body
With their everlasting scarf

Oh, the scarf that circles my soul
Oh, the thunder that penetrates me
Oh, the storm that quakes within my calmness
Oh, the burning volcano

Save my soul, dear God!
Restrain me!
