Valot [English translation]

Evening comes silently sighing,

lights turn on behind my window,

nobody remains alone in the dark.

Lights out, the shadows of the night spreads.

But I do not turn them on,

I don't think I barely need them,

when you are a bright light.

I would even say it shines too much.

Everybody wants to know why

my apartment remains totally dark.

Shadows intertwine, they suffocate

me no matter what happens.

But they don't know that light would

scare this tender hour away.

Therefore the two of us decided that never

should the lights shine on us.
