I can bear anything,
Only if it weren't your absence.
I wouldn't reproach the night,
If your voice weren't here with me.
Look at your window.
There's a wounded swallow*.
Let it into your heart,
Flame-eyed sweetheart.
Whenever I think about you,
It rains; it smells soil.
Like a child, with hope,
The roses spring on my cheek.
Look at your window.
There's a wounded swallow.
Let it into your heart,
Flame-eyed sweetheart.
Don't stay in the nights,
Sing morning songs.
All the pains end one day,
Just wait for the first sunshine.
Look at your window.
There's a wounded swallow.
Let it into your heart,
Flame-eyed sweetheart.
