Désert [English translation]

My only love, my heart and soul

I count the days, I count the hours

How I’d like to trace your form in the desert

The desert deep in me

My only love, the timber of your voice

It thrills me in every way

Let me take the time to draw you in the desert

The desert where I stay

In the night at times, pressed against the glass

I’ll await you, then I’ll slumber

In the desert, in my desert, with you

My only love, my heart is full

I count the hours, I count the days

How I’d like to trace your form in the desert

The desert where I lay

My only love, I’ll go away

I’ll desert all I have today

Leave you, there’s no more to say

In the night at times, pressed against the glass

I waited, and bid goodbye

Throw my ashes into the night sky, goodbye
