You are not there, but my existence still languishes on
It is unknown [to others] that I am without you
Since you have gone, my hands are always trembling
My heart conceals this pain
Years later, I haven't even been able to tell anyone
I buried this love into my heart, and you died
Now my wife, my friend, she thinks that I am ill
I am mourning and nobody knows
At the place where I last saw you, years later
That day came back to my mind again
But this time I have a daughter in one hand and a storm [brewing] inside me
You passed away that way
It's as though you've taken hold of me, I couldn't turn the lights out at night
Come and see that I am still not used to your absence
Now my wife, my friend, she thinks that I am ill
I am mourning and nobody knows
It's very difficult so many years later to make this confession
To dispose of this love
This time I would have had a lot of things to say to you
I would have loved to tell you that I did not forget
Today is your birthday, and I am not near you
That's why I'm so unwell
I have aged, I'm no longer like I was when you left me
And on top of that, I have a daughter and I'm married
It's as though you've taken hold of me, I couldn't turn the lights out at night
I am sick and nobody knows.
