Luna de medianoche [English translation]

Remember

when the illusion may be lost,

when happiness would be missing,

close your eyes and remember.

Remember,

and tell everybody else,

that, in the memory, there was a time,

when daybreak was the path.

How transparently life was going

to the green of the olive tree! *

Remember,

talking about flowers,

her name, in the silence,

close your eyes and remember.

Remember

and search, in your heart, for

that lighted lamp

loaded with love words,

before a whole day would

get wasted inside you,

remember it.

The midnight moon

became a tulip of fire

when I told it your name,

and when I told it mine,

it became a tulip of cold.

Life,

against the shade, the life,

against the lost illusion,

against the silence, the life

Life,

the life is meant to love,

help me, guitar of mine,

help me at day break,

that it doesn't matter what I have,

that what it does matter is to be

The midnight moon

became a tulip of fire

when I told it your name,

and when I told it mine,

it became a tulip of cold.
