Lyrics & Translation

[English] The night falls late
The flowers are still pale
It's your presence that
Drifts away
Like small sails
Of ships that make shipwreck
My eyes have drowned
In tears
Oh, what pain! Your kisses hurt me
Your absence, who will heal it?
Oh! May death take me with it
I don't want to live if you're not here
You left on a normal day
Rushing off to work
You barely ate a bread
I didn't want to ask
If you were okay or not
Or if you wanted to rest
Oh, what pain! Your kisses hurt me
Your absence, who will heal it?
Oh! May death take me with it
I don't want to live if you're not here
Oh, what pain! Your kisses hurt me
Your absence, who will heal it?
Oh! May death take me with it
I don't want to live if you're not here
Oh, what pain! Your kisses hurt me
Your absence, who will heal it?
Oh! May death take me with it
I don't want to live if you're not here
