Va fi o vreme cand Dumnezeu Insusi It will be a time when God Himself Va vrea sa ne unim destinele. Will want to unite our destines. (Cum sa nu te iubesc (How can I not love you Cand imi oferi eternitatea?) When you offer me eternity?) Astfel   Thus Dragostea noastra va ramane intotdeauna Our love will remain forever Scrisa in stele, pe cer Engraved in stars, on the sky, In inima lui Dumnezeu. In God's heart. Si vom lua secretul cu noi And we will take this secret with us In adancurile pamantului Into the abyss of the earth, In mormantul nesfarsit si rece. In an endless and cold grave. Rochia imi va fi spuma alba a marii My dress will be the white foam of the sea Ca sa se spulbere in mii de picaturi So it can be scattered by the wind in thousands of drops Ce sa-ti racoreasca buzele incinse de dorinta. That will chill your lips hot from desire. Sa ma saruti atat de adanc Kiss me so deeply Incat mortii sa se ridice That the dead will rise Pentru a fi martori la dragostea ce ti-o port. To be my witness for the love I feel for you. Fagaduiti mortii pentru pacatul de a iubi Promise to the death for their sin of love, Isi vor parasi mormantul They will leave the graves Precum Lazar la glasul Iubirii Like Lazarus by the voice of the Son Si ei, preoti ai lui Dumnezeu And they, God's priests, Ne vor uni pentru eternitate Will join us for eternity In fata marii, a muntilor, In the front of the sea, of the mountains, Ne vor uni in Insusi Dumnezeu. They will unite us in God Himself. La lasarea noptii iti voi simti aripile When it is growing dark I will feel your wings Strangandu-se in jurul meu Press around my body Pentru a ma ridica pe rugul dragostei To raise me on the pyre of love Ca flacarile placerii sa ma arda de vie. So that the flames of lust might burn me alive. Voi arde cu tine pana-n zori I will burn with you until dawn Cand vom putea sa ne desprindem When we could detach Si sa formam un singur spirit And form one spirit In timp ce sufletele noastre While our souls Continua arogante sa arda, Will continue to burn arrogantly, Ca dupa patruzeci de zile Thus, after forty days, Sa nu ne mai intoarcem niciodata. We will never come back.
