Laura [English translation]

And today that I can write a song for you

I remember when you arrived

with the mystery of the simple ones,

your restless eyes, your proud body;

and with the smile of your fingers

you filled my chords

with every note of your name, Laura.

It’s so hard for me to remember

how many sceneries felt

our anxiety for today,

our joy for tomorrow…

At home, among so many companions,

or in a sad exile beyond the sea,

I never missed your breath, Laura.

And if the chance takes you away

may the gods watch over your way,

may birds accompany you,

may stars caress you;

and in a corner of this voice,

as long as I can make it hear,

there will be your sound hidden forever, Laura.
