Oh, Maria... |
|
Oh, Maria... |
|
Though I call you from afar, |
|
Will this message reach your heart? |
|
Oh, how I long to be with you... |
|
Oh my hero, my beloved, |
|
Shall we still be made to part? |
|
Your promises of perennial love |
|
Yet sing here in my heart... |
|
I'm the darkness, you're the starlight |
|
Shining brightly from afar |
|
Through hours of despair, I offer this prayer |
|
To you, my evening star... |
|
Must my final vows exchanged |
|
Be with him and not with you? |
|
Were you only here to quiet my fear... |
|
Oh, speak! guide me anew. |
|
I am thankful, my beloved, |
|
for your tenderness and grace. |
|
I see in your eyes, |
|
so gentle and wise, |
|
all doubts and fears erased! |
|
though the hours take no notice |
|
of what fate might have in store, |
|
our love, come what may |
|
will never age a day. |
|
I'll wait forevermore! |
