Adrian Maniu

Dead love song [Cântec de dragoste moartă]

I thought we'd be forever together on this earth
Putting aside what others had said and done amiss
Turning our souls enraptured into a dainty kiss
And even grief perceiving as pure and holy mirth.

We had been fated surely from other lives to meet
In this material kingdom, be happy for a while;
I saw how blossomed gently into my chest your smile
When morn turned into twilight and lingered at my feet.

My hands caressed your being and touched your heart a lot
And in your eyes my keen sight its longing did fulfill
You were my peace and comfort, I lived your pleasant thrill
Anointing your white forehead with an unblemished thought.

Alas, your love has wilted, while mine grows everyday...
The distance and the silence are digging its cold tomb,
But I still bless the sorrow and the distressing gloom.
When I'm not yours, inside me you will forever stay.
