LOVERS IN LOVE

I will cry out one day like a lover in love,
With the same force when Spring comes,
Covering once more trees with newly born leaves,
And bringing life to the huge flourishing fresh fields.
 

I will cry out one day like a lover in love,
With the same intensity of the sun's rays,
Rising once again in the morning,
Giving us a new glorious Summer's day.
 

I will cry out one day like a lover in love,
Loving you in a room full of moonlight,
Like dead leaves fluttering on pavements at dawn,
Reminding people that one more Autumn is here.
 

I will cry out one day like a lover in love,
When in the Winter our bodies in one will be warmed,
After nights of affection, caress...
And endless tender dreams.
