Z wadą serca [English translation]

She was born with a defect of the heart

That didn’t want to beat in solitude.

Here her handicapped heart

For another human being

Knew only the feeling of love.

She was born with a defect of sight;

She was blindly avid for life.

When she was getting up at dawn,

Her eyes until the night

Were to remain in constant delight.

They wake up thinking that nothing lasts forever,

But they feel that’s what’s beautiful.

They fall asleep hoping that, though the world has so much to offer1,

Their hearts won’t break with joy.

They were born with a defect of hearing,

Because they need silence to be happy.

And the world keeps whispering to them

Its dense harmony

That nobody else ever hears.

They wake up thinking that nothing lasts forever,

But they feel that’s what’s beautiful.

They fall asleep hoping that, though the world has so much to offer,

Their hearts won’t break with joy.

They wake up thinking that nothing lasts forever,

But they feel that’s what’s beautiful.

They fall asleep hoping that, though the world has so much to offer,

Their hearts won’t break with joy.
