Maria no [English translation]

I'm going to the front tomorrow, Maria

sorry if won't write to you for some time

but you know it's not my fault

there's no reason for you to suffer jealousy.

The last night in the rear

where one dreams without ever sleeping

it's already six (you know) and I wonder what you're doing

whether you're thinking about me, while I think about your thoughts

Maria, no, this storm won't last

they say we'll just have to shoot a little

and then we'll all go back home

May will come after all these -6°C nights

not even memories will last

in your arms, I know

Maria, no, Maria, no, Maria, no

Maria, no, no, no, no

Maria, no, no, no, no

Maria, no

Months fly by in this trench

they say that's the way an idea is spread

but sooner or later we'll get away from here

and sing in front of vultures.

Maria, no, this storm won't last

I'll come back before your party, don't be sad because of me

May will come, full of nights beside you

counting the cats in the city

and then I'll never leave you

Maria, no, Maria, no

Maria, no, this storm won't last

I'll come back before your party

and I'll stay beside you

Maria, no, Maria, no, Maria, no

Maria, no, no, no, no

Maria, no, no, no, no

Maria, no.
