[English]
So, is the young lady ready?
Yes, maestro
Adjust the bow position, that's good
Fa, La, Mi
Re, Mi, Fa
Be careful with Mi (excuse me)
Sol, Si, Fa
Sol, La, Si
La, Si, Do, La, Fa
What's happening to me?
A tenderness that
I've never felt before
I know I'm falling in love
But I don't even have the courage to admit it to myself
I'm in love with you, and I'm thirty years older
Why are you looking at me? You already understand
I want to tell you that maybe you know it already
A secret, deep love
A sweet thing I hide inside me
The greatest love in the world
Born too late now for a man like me
I'm in love with you, and I'm thirty years older
Well then, see you the day after tomorrow, young lady
No, maestro
Thursday, then?
No, maestro, I won't come anymore
And why? Have you decided not to continue studying?
No, maestro
Then why?
Because
I'm in love with you
