Quando viene dicembre [Once Upon A December] [English translation]

Parties and balls, fantasy

it's the same old memory1

and a song flies away

when December comes.

It appears in an instance

the horses are prancing

and that melody returns

that time took away.

~~~~~~~~~~

It appears in an instance

and the horses are prancing

I heard this melody

in my memory.

Maybe some day I'll return

my heart feels it

and then I understood

the same old memory.

And a song flies away...

...when December comes!

1. lit. '...the memory of always'. As in the same old memory she keeps having.
