Longe Daqui [English translation]

In a dream I go fleeing,

So far from here, so far,

It's sad to live having a life,

So far from here, so far.

Saddest will be those who don't suffer,

With love in a prison without bars.

In my heart there is a safe,

With jewels which are longings.

My love is beyond the river,

And I'm here on this side very cold.

My love is beyond the sea,

And so many hugs and kisses to give.

Oh good which gives me a thousand cares,

So far from here, so far.

The moon takes my message,

So far from here, so far.

How I wish I was skyward,

Running arrowy in the wind.

You might get here in an instant,

What am I thinking.

My love is beyond the river,

And I'm here on this side very cold.

My love is beyond the sea,

And so many hugs and kisses to give,

My love is beyond the sea.
