Sweet ecstasy of our young love
Tender recklesness of our first beautiful days
When time makes us face the heaven of our 16 years
It's our childhood which dies gently
Sweet ecstacy of our distraught hearts
Crazy impatience for eagerly awaited joys
Our life is lit up in the fire of its heat
And we silence its fears
My love, give me nights without sleep
So that our desires finally draw together
My love, guide me to the tender awakenings
That we will soon have together
Sweet ecstasy of our first mornings
The whole world suddenly belongs to us
And our hearts and our lips
Want to always keep
The sweet ecstasy of our love
