Aproape de voi [English translation]

Tonight I want to drink

And forget about my trouble

I want to smash my glass and say

"Now I'm here with you"

I don't know how long I have left to live

But I want to spend all this time with you,

For you've always been by my side

In both joy and sorrow.

And if I am to die,

I don't want you to be sad about it

Sing and dance until the dawn

And if, from time to time,

You should think about me,

I'll be close to you.

I give a toast and tell you

I'm thankful to God

For he gave me such good friends

So that I shouldn't walk my way alone

And if I am to die,

I don't want you to be sad about it

Sing and dance until the dawn

And if, from time to time,

You should think about me,

I'll be close to you.

And if I am to die,

I don't want you to be sad about it

Sing and dance until the dawn

And if from time to time,

You should think about me,

I'll be close to you.
