Mai Pií¹ Serena [But Never More Serene]
While, far away, he goes
In my secret dream he lies
Next to me, he comes to me
Oh painful cross to bear!
Ever since, his going
Haunts me
Wherever my thoughts go
it is he who accompanies me.
Sweet pain
Burning sweetness
I remain, my sighs turned torwards
The heavens
Ah, if he comes not back to me
Oh, if he comes not
i will go alone i will go alone...
But never more serene
While, far away, he goes
Though speechless, i speak to him
And the voice of my thoughts
Fly to him
Sweet pain
Burning sweetness
I remain, my sighs turned torwards
The heavens
Ah, if he comes not back to me
Oh, if he comes not
I will go alone I will go alone...
But never more serene
Never more...
