Morir de amor [English translation]

What is to die for love?

to die for love from the inside

is to remain without your light,

is to lose you in instant.

How can I

tell you that I'm sorry,

that your absence is my pain,

that without your love I'll die...

To die of love,

slowly and silently without knowing

if everything I've given has reached you1

on time...

To die for love,

rather than die alone from indifference

and have no name to tell the wind.

I don't really know

what's going on,

my heart is withered

from having cried so much.

I have nothing left

but two or three reminders:

a letter, maybe a flower

a brief farewell

and a "I love you"...

To die for love,

slowly and silently without knowing

if everything I've given has reached you

on time...

To die for love,

rather than die alone from indifference

and have no name to tell the wind.

1. lit. 'if everything I've done/given you has reached you'.
