Tanha [English translation]

Those eyes like ripe grapes,

two stars from heaven in your face,

my Tanha, my goddess, my dream,

let me dream a dream of love.

My love for you, oh Tanha,

is bigger than the waves of the sea,

it encompasses the sand,

it encompasses the beach.

My love for you, oh Tanha,

is overflowing love.

The passion of the sea for the sand.

Every time I think of you,

a star falls from heaven.

I think so much about you, oh Tanha,

that the sky no longer has stars.
