Hilarión Correa
The nightingale sings
I feel you close in the dark silence
With a deep feeling that touches my soul
It relieves my immense suffering
My tireless torment that haunts me
Your voice echoes in the distance
Like a distant memory in my heart
Your words that once comforted me
Now echo endlessly without my understanding
In the midst of the fragrant jasmine flowers
And the songs of the birds in the morning
I hear your voice that once brought me joy
And now with so much affection, your words
The nightingale sings, my evening star
Shining brightly in the sky
Your light guides me through the darkness
In this world full of uncertainties
The church bell rings in the distance
I pray to the Virgin Mary
I kneel down with devotion and strength
Making a sacred promise to my soul
I offer roses to the Virgin
And watch the butterflies announce joy
And in the midst of a beautiful day
I accept my fate, facing death with courage
