Even you are getting old

Snatch away your butcher's knife,
Time! Don't ravage my heart, my treasure!
I'll let you cut me a thousand times,
But never touch her even a bit.
We agreed, love will never grow old.

Go away! Time!
Don't dare leave wrinkles on her face,
Don't bend her waist!

Pure and flawless, it's your soul;
Innocent and simple, you opened my heart:
In this world, there are people like you!

I'll surround you with high walls;
I'll protect you with a hard shell.
I truly hope, in the next life, it's still you.
