I am riding my crispy-white unicorn
With sparkling star on his horn.
Where I am going?
Silver moonlight from above
Is painting a path
Among blossoming meadows
Of my dreams and desires.
I am riding my unicorn
Through the mist;
Barefooted, with veil on my hips,
Softly wearing my morning tiara,
Cleansing gently my soul
In the whispering creek.
Where am I going?
I am riding
Towards the morning.
Don’t wake me up, please…
