Si je rêve de toi [English translation]

If I dream of you, Maria, Maria...

If I dream of you, Maria, Maria...

Lost in the twilight

For already so long

If I dream of you, Maria, Maria

It's because the years fall

Fall between you and me

But will we have the right

To want to be free?

But do we have to stop living

When we are 20 years old?

If I shouted so loudly, Maria, Maria

It's the misery of the world

Which shouted with my voice

If I cry sometimes, Maria, Maria

Then the lines on my forehead,

On my fingers win

But the time got lost, Maria

But the time fleed, Maria

The hope of another life, Maria

All hope ran out, Maria!

If I dream of you, Maria, Maria...

Lost in the crepuscule

For already so long

If I dream of you, Maria, Maria

It's because the years fall

Fall between you and me

If I call on my dreams

From the hollow of my night

It's because I don't believe anymore

That another day will rise

If I cry, you see, Maria

It's because the hope to see you again by my side

Fell apart

And if I pray sometimes, Maria, Maria

I do it so death might come

To take away my voice!
