Jej portret [English translation]

Who you really are nobody knows

You know about yourself zilch

In dancing around gray mirrors of the days

Flashes your golden smile

Half finished tender gesture

In memory I play uninterruptedly

Solitary built only of hearts.

Who you really are nobody knows

It is a truth I do not need at all

If we don’t walk along the same path

I’ll take the fragrance of your sleep,

Design of mouth, hue of the words

Unfinished, bright portrait of you.

I’ll take it with me, save everywhere,

No matter if you aren’t with me or you are

Talisman mine of your sudden musings and eyelashes

After receiving the gift of you, my dear,

If you ever tell me: forgive me

I’ll go through my life looking back.

I’ll take it with me, save everywhere...
