True love sings beyond the sea

True love sings beyond the sea

I left the sea to find my dream.

The streams outside the sea

sings the name Hakeem.

My imagination travels

above the sea, seeking my dream.

The great storm of wisdom pulled me down.

Are you sure your dream is above the sea?

There will be many sacrifices above the sea

The world above will not be like home.

Are you sure your dream is above the sea?

I raise my window…a sweat aroma flows,

from the sea…I hear a song, it sings Adriana

My imagination travels outside my window

Seeking my dream… just beyond the sea.

The great wisdom of my grandma speaks to me

son; are you sure your dream is just beyond the sea?

There will be many sacrifices beyond the sea.

The world beyond the sea will not be like home.

Are you sure your dream is just beyond the sea?

Love, CO
