Staring at your absence, I am staying just like that just to spite the rising sun
If only another sun would have risen inside my soul!
Staring at your absence, my breathing stopped at your exhalation
I forgot my life in your bosom!
Now my hair is destitute for the caress of the winds
Even my heart gave up and became silent!
As it was beating out and repeating, you, you, you, you
How come it could beat in your absence…
Staring at your absence
Your memories are left in this living dead life!
I ask how come you did not spare, HOW COME?
My little trembling sparrow life…
I would have not felt cold in the palm of your hand,
I called your bosom my home!
Don’t even get me started on your eyes
They are; my home, my refuge, my homeland…
Staring at your absence
I have longing for my home!
Tell me darling, why did I consider you everything an’ all for me?
My fate became my wound!
Let it be so my love
Look, your love turned into a living dead
By anticipating your coming
As I go wriggle about inside my own grave you digged…
Like the flowers we picked after being amazed by your beauty
Look, I turned into a living dead!
My life now will last as long as the day comes when I wither in a glass jar
You can wear it on your collar when it get dry…
FAREWELL!…
