Sinine safiir [English translation]

I'm falling at the speed of light

(and) before I even realize

I'm already drowning into summer's eyes

which are like perfect gems

It's like I'm swimming in the ocean's waves

with no low tide to be expected

My legs aren't touching the dunes,

I'm floating in the air instead

Chorus

Your eyes are reflecting the summer moon,

they're like the weather of summer nights

Your eyes are reflecting the summer moon,

like blue sapphires1

Ashes were pressed into diamonds,

when Venus shone in the summer night

A mermaid wrapped in a golden-brown skin 2

Chorus

Your eyes are reflecting the summer moon,

they're like the weather of summer nights

Your eyes are reflecting the summer moon,

like blue sapphires

Diving together into the waves

in the warm summer night

New stars, born from the sparkle of your eyes

Like in a fairy tale

1. In the original lyrics, the word "sapphire" is in singular, but using a plural in the translation felt more idiosyncratic2. This may be a metaphor of the mermaid having a brown skin or maybe it literally means she has wrapped herself into a skin of some sort to keep the cold at bay
