While, far away, he goes
In my secret dream he lies
Next to me, he comes to me
Oh painful cross to bear!

Ever since, his going
Haunts me
Wherever my thought goes
it is he who accompanies me.

Sweet pain
Burning sweetness
I remain, my sighs turned torwards
The heavens

Ah, if he comes not back to me
Oh, if he comes not
i will go alone i will go alone...
But never more serene

While, far away, he goes
Though speechless, i speak to him
And the voice of my thoughts
Fly to him

Sweet pain
Burning sweetness
I remain, my sighs turned torwards
The heavens

Ah, if he comes not back lo me
Oh, if he comes not
I will go alone I will go alone...
But never more serene
Never more...
