Oh, mother, without you the Earth is not my friend And on my cheeks flow tears, for I cannot pretend; Your house is sad and empty, I feel like a John Doe When nobody replies me, although I say, “Hello!”.
The phone is stern and silent, it doesn't ring at all How much I'd like you, angel, to give me a short call, To hear again those words so touching and divine: “My baby, this is mother, I hope that you are fine”.
And maybe this is only a nightmare or a spell In which an evil demon has taken me to hell That's why I am so eager to wake up and to see The lovely face that always was watching over me.
But time is running quickly and you are not around Where are your eyes, dear mother, so gentle and profound? I know they died for good and cannot see and thrive And I am also dead, although I'm still alive.
