If you go

(zamba)

If you leave, you will only leave once,
For me you will have died.
I ask you to let me know,
I want to be awake.
Because if you leave, I want to believe
that you will never come back.
Tell me and it will be much less cruel,
I always knew how to lose.

If you leave, I want to see you leave,
know that you're gone.
Without goodbyes, loving and dying
They are never forgotten.
Bird your skin, wind my love,
I can understand you.
Without knowing why you won't be able to leave,
I want to say goodbye to you.

(Chorus)
And it won't be for that
that we are separated.
Even if you didn't leave,
ours is finished.
But if you leave, I want to believe
that you will never come back.

If you leave, with love or without it,
you must go now.
Your nostalgia and your escapes from yesterday
I don't love them anymore.
See you live, sparrow blood,
you have lacked heart...(*)
I may well be, if you want to leave,
the one who helps you leave.

If you leave, don't leave like that,
take your life.
If you can't forget me and leave,
you will fly wounded.
Go without pain, you must understand
that I am the same as yesterday.
There is no better love than the one that has already passed,
it feels like saying goodbye.
