One day you left a burning torch behind
in the room offered to my heart...
And since then, my love, with the window covered with snow,
I search for the light even near God.
If someday, you could appear between the snowflakes
As if you were a dove at the horizon
All the children would follow you,
And so the angels would start to sing the Christmas carol.
(Chorus)
If it snows, you will find
The star in the branch of my heart
White cirles, long dresses,
And in Mother Mary's eyes
Where you are, if you don't come,
I kiss you with my eyes.
At night, when I'll wait for you,
I'll tell the Magi the miracle of your coming,
who will be surprised to see that in my heart
grows a branch of stars coming straight from the snow.
Love has forgotten about us, as a passenger in winter time
We only meet (God's) appearance by looking up to the sky,
But since the fir trees are carrying blossoms again,
There's time left, my love, just to hope as much as possible.
(Chorus x2)
