Donna, amante mia [English translation]

Our love is blooming:

Let me not go too far,

..This timid budding feeling,..

Oh, the velvety skin..to draw a scar

On you - by icy freezing..,

You'd think "gone..yet another" !?

All I need is these garments,

To do away with old sentiments,

And ..to feel ..you - are!

My loving woman, my poem of a lady;

A scared little squirrel hiding on my chest,

Then, at sunrise you were that lady (again);

If I lose you, I'd be the loser,

It would be too much and perhaps you are too much,-

So sleep a little more, though, - I'll be back!

'tis so hard to explain

To a girl the part she plays,

When one needs to go away.

She hits my body, she dies within,

Embracing is like a saddest sin,

Unless it's with you!

Lady of desire, lover of my retreat,

A scared unpredictable little squirrel,

And who will notice that you're a woman;

I'll be loooking for you, my sweet lovable lady,

But as much as I know you, your answer will be "no",

And here - I'll expire at your door!

I'll be loooking for you, my sweet lovely lady,

But, as I understand you, you will say: "no",

And there - I'll die at your door!
