Surviving rose

That bundle of charm of yesterday I (am hoping I) could cling on to
(Unlike) those flutters of laughter of yesterday (which have already) dissipated like ripples
(I wish I could persuade) happiness of former times and bygone moments to stay
(When I recall) memories from all the yesterdays
I invariably mutter please stay
 
That spell of dancing last night I (am hoping) I could (continue to) remember
(Unlike) that splash of affection last night (which has already) dissipated like ripples
With that smile when (you) said goodbye (to me last time)
Today you are tenderly attentive to me once again
 
[I] query why this happiness has to be fleeting
Like that white cloud in the sky sometimes gathering sometimes dispersing
It is the intense adoration that seems to come so effortlessly (that led me)
To believe that it could stretch to eternity no one ever (told me) it could end
 
Your adoring gaze every time so delightful so unexpected
Even on a stormy day offers me a cheerful shelter
Your catching smile can wipe away troubles in my heart
Happiness of that day I keep for a lifetime
 
[I] query why this happiness has to be fleeting
like that white cloud above sometimes gathering sometimes dispersing
It is the intense adoration that seems to come so effortlessly (that prompted me)
To believe that it could stretch to eternity no one ever (told me) it could end
 
Your adoring gaze every time so delightful so unexpected
Even on a stormy day offers me a cheerful shelter
Your catching smile can wipe away troubles in my heart
Happiness of that day I remember for a lifetime
 
I query why this happiness has to be fleeting
like that white cloud above sometimes gathering sometimes dispersing
It is the intense adoration that seems so effortless (that prompted me)
To believe that it could stretch to eternity no one ever (told me) it could end
 
Your adoring gaze every time so delightful so unexpected
Even on a stormy day offers me a cheerful shelter
Your catching smile can wipe away troubles in my heart
Happiness of that day I remember for a lifetime
 
Gave you (my) heart long ago
