| His eyes closed and the world goes on
|
| Her mouth of hers that was mine no longer kisses me
|
| The echoes of his resounding laugh faded
|
| And this silence is cruel, it hurts me so much
|
| The pious sweetness of her hands was mine
|
| who gave my sorrow caresses of kindness
|
| And now that I recall it sunk in my brokenness
|
| The strained tears refuse to flow
|
| And I don't have the consolation of being able to cry
|
| Because her wings, so cruel, broke life
|
| Because this sinister grimace of fate
|
| I wanted to shelter her and more could death
|
| How this wound hurts and deepens
|
| I know that now strange faces will come
|
| With your alms of relief to my torment
|
| Everything is a lie, a lie is the lament
|
| Today my heart is alone
|
| Like dogs of prey the treacherous sorrows
|
| Jealous of her affection, they galloped behind
|
| And hidden in the waters of her good look
|
| Crouching death marked its beat
|
| In vain I feverishly encouraged a hope
|
| Nail in my living flesh the claws of her the pain
|
| And while in the streets in mad hubbub
|
| The carnival of the world enjoyed and laughed
|
| Mocking fate I stole his love
|
| Because her wings so cruel broke life
|
| Because this sinister grimace of fate
|
| I wanted to shelter her and more could death
|
| How this wound hurts and deepens
|
| I know that now strange faces will come
|
| With your alms of relief to my torment
|
| Everything is a lie, a lie is the lament
|
| Today my heart is alone |
