Minuetto [English translation]

Every night of mine is uncertain...

Waiting, it seems like an agony.

Too many times I would tell you no

but then I see you and the strength fails me!

My heart rises up against you, but not my body!

Your hands, instruments on me,

that you conduct like the expert master you are.

And you come to my place, whenever you like, at night more than ever.

You sleep here, you go, always keeping your thoughts to yourself.

Such do you know that up here, however bad it's going for you, you will have all of me, if you go away for (just) one night...

...And solitude grows more and more,

in the great voids in which you leave me.

Disown a passion, no,

but I can't always say "yes" to you and feel so small

every time you're here before me.

Happiness is too costly for my naivety.

I keep waiting for you at night

to beg for love...

I'm always yours, whenever you like, at night more than ever.

You sleep here, you go, always keeping your thoughts to yourself.

Such do you know that up here, however bad it's going for you, you will have all of me, if you go away for (just) one night... I'm yours...

...the night at my place, I'm yours, a thousand times yours...

And life is passing us over, horizons I never see.

Time takes advantage of me and robs, like you did,

the remains of a youth I no longer have now...

And I keep walking the same road, always drunk with melancholy,

now I admit that maybe it's all my fault,

I should have lost you, instead I searched you out.

Minuet play for us, my mind never stops.

I don't know the true love held by a smile...

Thoughts come and go, so is life...
