Lamento de Exu
Monica Salmaso
Exu's Lament
I hope
That you come back quickly
That you don't say goodbye
Never again to my affection
And cry, regret
And think a lot
That it's better to suffer together
Than to live happily alone
I hope
That sadness convinces you
That longing doesn't make up for it
And that absence doesn't bring peace
And true love from those who love each other
Weaves the same old plot
That doesn't unravel
And the most divine thing
In the world
Is to live every second
As if never again
