That my eyes wake up
with the light of your sight,
I ask of God
that my mother doesn't die
and that my father remembers me,
I ask of God.
That you stay by my side
and that you never leave me, my love,
I ask of God.
That my soul does not rest
when it concerns loving you, my love,
I ask of God.
For the days that for me remain
and the nights that yet haven't come,
I ask of God.
For the children of my children
and the children of your children,
I ask of God.
That my nation does not shed so much blood
and it lift up my people,
I ask of God.
That my soul does not rest
when it concerns loving you, my love,
I ask of God.
One more second of life to give you
and my entire heart to surrender,
one more second of life to give you
and to stay always by your side,
one more second of life,
I ask of God.
That if I die, be it from love
and if I fall in love, be it with you,
and that to your voice may this heart belong,
everyday I ask of God.
That if I die, be it from love
and if I fall in love, be it with you,
and that to your voice may this heart belong,
everyday I ask of God,
I ask of God.
