Lirama

Stop, dawn, do not rise, you fiend
Let the night hide
These eyes which bear pearls
This heart which cannot love another
The wine leads me to her
And further away from my senses

I have to drink
To get drunk
To live alone, without her
Mother, I cannot

Mother, go and ask her elders
Will they give her to me
If they do, call the musicians
If they don't, instead of curses
Cry for me

I have to drink
To get drunk
To live alone, without her
Mother, I cannot
(2x)

Dawn, do not rise
A drunken dance
Dance with me
