Al alba [English translation]

If I told you, my love

That I am terrified of the morning...

I don't know which stars are these

That wound me like threats

And I know that the moon is bleeding

On the blade of their scythe.

I feel that, after tonight,

Yet a longer night shall come...

I don't want you to leave me alone

Oh, my love! At dawn...

At dawn...

At dawn...

At dawn...

At dawn...

The children that we never had

Are hiding in the sewers.

They feed on the last flowers there are left;

It seems as if they could divine

That the new day that is approaching

Will come with a ravenous hunger.

I feel that, after tonight,

Yet a longer night shall come...

I don't want you to leave me alone

Oh, my love! At dawn...

At dawn...

At dawn...

At dawn...

At dawn...

Thousands of silent vultures

Are spreading their wings.

Doesn't this silent dance

Wound you very deeply, my love?

Accursed dance of the dead!

Gunpowder of the morning...

I feel that, after tonight,

Yet a longer night shall come...

I don't want you to leave me alone

Oh, my love! At dawn...

At dawn...

At dawn...

At dawn...

At dawn...
