O lenço da Carolina [English translation]

My heart is happy

Because you love him a lot:

He follows you,

No matter how far you are.

My heart is like a sparrow

Crying at night.

He embroiders a trousseau

Using all the longing you leave in me.

Caroline,

Take this rosemary scented napking,

Keep it among the slik and the dried lavender flowers.

Caroline, do not lose yourself.

My heart is happy

Because you hold his key:

As deep as a root,

He opens only to you.

Your heart is all mine,

There is where I live:

Take care of it - as if it were yours -,

Because if one stops, beware, the other will die.

Caroline,

Take this rosemary scented napking:

I embroidered a map in the linens

With a cross over our nest.

Caroline, do not lose yourself.

My heart is happy

Because it has the keenness

Of fooling sadness

By sewing with firm hand.

My heart is happy

To knit a thousand sapphires,

At every needle that threads

I know you're approaching a little more.

Caroline,

Take this rosemary scented napking,

Conserve it among the slik and the dried lavender flowers.

Caroline, do not lose yourself.

Take this rosemary scented napking:

I embroidered a map in the linens

With a cross over our nest.

Caroline, do not lose me.
