Les Amants de Teruel

Side by side
Stand the lovers
Who found each other
To walk hand in hand
Reunited in death
Since life couldn't understand them
Reunited in love
Hatred couldn't reach them
The leaves, the leaves fall
On their wedding bed
May the earth be gentle
Be gentle to the lovers of Teruel
Finally united in the shadows...
Side by side
They sleep now
They sleep, set free
From the dread of dawn
Holding hands
In the stillness of prayer
Renewing their vow
In the quiet eternity of stones
The Night opens its doors for them
Everything falls into place
Their embrace remains
Forever suspended
Like a note from an organ...
