matud nila [English translation]

people tell me that i am not worthy

to desire and aspire for your love

people tell me i can't make you happy

i have no gold or treasure

or any wealth to offer

it's my true love i promise to give you

it's worth more than what money can bring you

people say that you waste precious moments

to give me your love and your caress.

i will always have this deep emotion

it will never end for any reason

for here's the only way my life has meaning

dreaming of the day you'll share your feelings

tell me you'll ignore what folks are saying

that i've given up in desperation

tell me that you'll wait - i'll keep on yearning

till i earn the promise of your love.
