Abandono [English translation]

For your free thinking

They imprisoned you far away

So far that my lament

Can not reach you

And you just hear the wind

And you just hear the sea

They took you in the middle of the night

The darkness covered everything

It was night, only one night

Of all the darkest

It was night, only one night

And it never became day again.

Ai! Of that night the venom

Persists in poisoning me

I hear only the silence

That remained in your place

And at least you hear the wind

And at least you hear the sea.
