Rebecca [English translation]

Like a wind, like a playful wind in Liguria,

you came into my life like a present from nature.

Like a rain, like a gentle rain from Biscay,

you came in, like from heaven sent to stay.

You are wind, you are rain, my Rebecca.

Like a light, like a ray in the deep blue night,

like a glance of the legendary jewels,

like a sun, like a shining star in the sky,

you gave life and warmth to a slumbering memory,

You are light, you are life, my Rebecca.

Take my hand, let us wander in the forest wet with rain;

Take my hand, let us tramp the red burned earth;

Come with me, I will show you the colors of the flowers;

Come with me, I will show you the staggering mountains.

You are earth, you are color, my Rebecca;

You are blood, you are marrow, my Rebecca.

Oh, how I love you!

Think that you love me!

Think that we two are one, my Rebecca!

Think that I dreamed of you!

Think that you came to me;

Think that we both exist, my Rebecca!
