Silenzio d'amuri [English translation]

I loved you since you were a baby in the cradle

I fed your sweetness with pieces of crumble,

You, silence of love, you circulate within my veins

It is impossible for me to break away from you.

You, silence of love, you circulate within my veins

It is impossible for me to break away from you.

Do not cry, o olive trees,

Love and affection come from afar,

My dear love, soul of my soul,

Give me your heart so it’ll give you life.

My dear love, soul of my soul,

Give me your heart so it’ll give you life.

Only when the feeling becomes arid and colourless

--- When a mother forgets her own child---

Only then can my love for you come to an end.

I do love you, my little one,

Only then can my love for you come to an end.

I do love you, my little one.

Fly, o swallows, and go to my dear love

And sing to her as long as death and life are with us.

As the world is the same everywhere

You are the queen and I am the king of Spain

As the world is the same everywhere

You are the queen and I am the king of Spain.
