English Translation
People want it
People dream about it
It can be different to every individual
It can complete us
Or it can destroy us
And it can change the world
People dream about it
It can be different to every individual
It can complete us
Or it can destroy us
And it can change the world
People call it treasure
The sound of wind blowing
From the horizon
The warmth of the sun
Hitting the ocean waves
The vibration of sand beating
The sound of wind blowing
From the horizon
The warmth of the sun
Hitting the ocean waves
The vibration of sand beating
Like the hearts of youth
We’re at the starting point of
This long journey
The freezing winds may make us shiver
The heat of the sun may make us thirsty
The vibrations of the sand may swallow us
We’re at the starting point of
This long journey
The freezing winds may make us shiver
The heat of the sun may make us thirsty
The vibrations of the sand may swallow us
But we’ll never stop
Gold eternal life honor love fame
It doesn’t matter what you dream for
So let me ask you
What is your treasure
Will you join us?
Gold eternal life honor love fame
It doesn’t matter what you dream for
So let me ask you
What is your treasure
Will you join us?
🎵 Song Meaning & Interpretation
The lyrics present treasure as a deeply personal desire that can complete, transform, or even destroy those who pursue it. Standing at the beginning of a vast journey, the speakers acknowledge the cold, heat, thirst, and uncertainty awaiting them, yet refuse to stop. Whether the destination is love, honor, fame, or eternal life matters less than possessing the courage to identify one’s own dream and answer the invitation to seek it through fearless discovery, youthful resolve, and an unwavering spirit of adventure.
