Translation

Move on, my friend

From the moment of our separation, my heart has burnt me out

From her eyes and my longing for her, my tears overwhelm me

And with her burning fire, why does she torment me?

Why am I hurt, and who will heal me?

My eyes haven't slept and my nights have been spent awake

By god, I've gone mad, and her absence has defeated me

Oh, my friend, my nights have become like the daytime for me!

My tears flow and nobody wipes them for me

And there's fire in my heart

My friend, move on from the past that has gone

It’s fate and destiny, and the heart is content with it

Throw it behind you and move on, it’s fine, it’s fine

And sing, oh my eyes, oh my night, oh night

Oh my night, my night, oh my night, and oh my night

Sadness has become an old currency

Who said their departure is such a big deal?

And it deserves an Oscar

Forget what’s gone and focus a little

Enough already, stop bringing me down

Instead of loneliness, find a hundred alternatives

The choice is yours

Oh, my luck, be my companion just once in my life.

Oh world, bring back the life that once lived within me.

My heart asks me, "Where are my laughs?"

"Where are they, where, where?"

All that remained were my ribs

The day my heart left with them

And the longing in my veins

Is living within me

I am alive, yet they’ve buried me

I leave you to my Lord

Who knows my burdens

And who feels what I’m going through?

And you try to please me, and you try to please me

What I’m going through is more than enough for me

Oh, woe to me from my yearning, my years are hard

Oh, you who have forgotten me
