“Sneah Sothea - ស្នេហាសុទ្ធា” is the name of this piece. A lot of my Khmer work is inspired by old songs of Sinn Sisamouth or Ros Sereysothea. This just happened to be a lyric from one of their many duets, which I randomly found while searching on Apple iTunes.
.
Excuse my poor translation but this lyric roughly says “if the world goes out, let human’s prayers to the gods grant our souls to live so that our love can glimpse the heavens and it will quickly move into the universe.”

Khmer lyric:
បើលោកនេះអាចរលត់ មនុស្សម្នាបន់ស្រន់ទេវតាសូមជីវ៉ា
ឲ្យរស់ពីរប្រាណ ដើម្បីស្នេហ៏យើងបាន សម្លឹងឃើញសួគ៍ាឋាន
ស្នេហាយើងពីរប្រាណលយលឿនលើចក្រវាឡ
