If you leave who will hug me like this

who will listen to me at the end of the day

who will console and calm me as only?

you know how

And if you leave who will I wait for by the window

in a festive dress

to come hug me so,

when you arrive

When you leave go, I’ll go out to the sun,

in the golden field, morning and evening,

the moon will light up my face

which dreams all day long of you

When you come back,

you’ll carry me in your arms,

from the field to the river,

you’ll wash my face and tell me words

as only?

you know how
