GOODBYE - O ungrateful child!
You said to me - goodbye -?
Madness! better it would be
To separate the land from the skies.
- Goodbye - somber word!
Of a frozen and cold soul
You are the last flower.
- Goodbye! - misery! lie
Of a breast that does not sigh,
Of a heart without love.
O Lord! The wasteland bird
dies without a mate.
The lightning that burns the cedar
Burnt the parasite.
The star flirts with the dew:
- One is the star of the twig,
- The other is the dew of the amplitude.
But, at the light of the rising sun,
The star - in the west dies!
The dew - dies in the soil!
Never the fogs of the valley
Learnt how to say - goodbye -
If together they ascend from the ground,
Together they are lost in skies.
The wave dies on the shore
But another wave comes soon
To die of the same pain
- Goodbye - somber word!
Do not say - goodbye -, Maria!
Or do not speak to me of love!
