Letra de Ivo Pelay
Música de Mores
Música de Canaro
Translation by Walter Kane
Leave me! I never want to see you again.
Let me try to live in peace.
Don’t say that I am already
drunk like yesterday.
The anguish and grief of loving
hurt me more
than the alcohol.
My cup is filled
with oblivion and illusion,
and in it I want to drown
my despair.
Leave me! The sight of you makes it worse.
Leave me, now that I can do no more.
Blindly I loved you,
as one loves once.
And your life and my love,
I locked in a dream,
and now you see,
But leave me!
I never want to see you again.
Let me try to live in peace.
The darkness of your eyes,
The red of your lips,
the heat of your arms,
are blended in the wine
with the glint of the dagger.
To flee from your fascination is in vain.
To ask my heart to forget is in vain.
Come here, I need to see you close to me.
Kiss me. Without you there is no life…
Kiss me my love, kiss me my love.
