Have no mercy in saying good-bye,
Since your tolerance is hurting you.
Don't make the effort to remain,
I already know you are no longer (here) anyway.
And let me cry just a little,
I'm not doing it to make you feel bad.
It's just that you matter beyond measure* to me
But, from today I begin to forget you.
Truly, I no longer hope you will stay,
Nor return.
I will never believe** that again.
You will remember me when you want to forget me
And you will seek in someone (else) what you already had here
And you'll be careful not to speak my name
You'll close your eyes so that you may be able to kiss me
You will remember me when dawn will break one day***
When you need a real embrace
You will remember me when you understand
That it's too late and there is no one
Who loves you the way I knew to love you.
You will remember me when you are with someone else
And, more than ever, feel loneliness.
Don't seek me out again, please.
I will not stand it again.
Our dreams die this very moment
I safeguard myself against you, I will never surrender myself again
Truly, I no longer hope you will stay,
Nor return.
I will never believe that again.
You will remember me when you want to forget me
And you will seek in someone (else) what you already had here
And you'll be careful not to speak my name
You'll close your eyes so that you may be able to kiss me.
You will remember me when dawn will break one day
When you need a real embrace
You will remember me when you understand
That it's too late and there is no one
Who loves you the way I knew to love you.
You will remember me when you are with someone else
And, more than ever, feel loneliness.
