Vihko [English translation]

When in silence I remember

Our past life,

Its path on which side

Grew dark roses

From them I bind a wreath of sorrow

To your breasts,

On the top of it I put

Thousands of tears.

I felt how [my] heart beat harder.

Are you there, somewhere in the shadows

The winds of memories whisper

In the darkness they turn into sentences.

I picture you on an icy window,

I dare not breathe

[nor] touch your face.

Chest that does not raise anymore,

Lungs that do not breathe

Lips that do not kiss anymore

Eyes [that will] never again burn with frenzy

In its hands a motionless corpse

You lost the battle for the cold night

Heart beat harder

Or at least I thought so

I wanted it to beat more

Are you there, somewhere in the shadows

The winds of memories whisper

In the darkness they turn into sentences.

I picture you on an icy window,

I dare not breathe

[nor] touch your face.

You said "Don't cry,

I've been dead [just] for a moment

Soon we'll see anyway."

And I wrap my hands on your neck.

Lonely minutes

Turn into years.

Your hand marks

Will remain in my heart.

Are you there, somewhere in the shadows

The winds of memories whisper

In the darkness they turn into sentences.

I picture you on an icy window,

I dare not breathe

[nor] touch your face.

I write a message in the notebook

I don't want to let go

Nor ever forget

I don't want to ever forget.
