White Moon
Oh, white moon of dazzling charms
If it's true that you shelter love
Oh, come wipe the tears from my eyes
Oh, come end this passion that follows me
Oh, for whom you are, come down from the sky, white moon
This bitterness in my heart, come, tear it away
Give me the moonlight of your compassion
Oh, come, for God's sake, light up my heart
And how many times you appeared to me up in the sky
Shining on a calm, starry night
Your light would then surprise me
Kneeling by the feet of my beloved
And she crying, sobbing, full of shame
Came to offer me a sweet kiss on her lips
She left, abandoned me like this
Oh, white moon, for whom you are, have pity on me
