La fiancée [English translation]

What could she have done

Lalalalalala

The fiancée

Her fiancé has gone off to war

She has wept him so much

Days after days, mouths after mouths

Lalalalalala

The fiancée

The routine is still the same

To comfort her

I had the essentials

The ocean and the sky

White sheets in which you can rest

And in the empty room

The blinds are shut

I dare not to go there once again

Ribbons and lace

Lalalalalala

The fiancée

She is following the swallows

To the pier

I cannot wage war

Like a man could do

But I know when things change

If you take me

In return for an uniform

I would like to change my dress

What could she have done

Lalalalalala

The fiancée

Her fiancé has gone off to war

She has wept him so much
