Mi Dicha Lejana
Paiko
My Distant Happiness
Sublime longing guards my soul
And brings the sadness of my loneliness,
I think of the future already without hope
Because in the distance you will forget me.
If in your little head you still carry
Some of the happiness of our love,
Think that far away I must suffer so much
Without any comfort in my suffering.
Why will I stop missing you
I will miss you my whole life
I may succumb maybe
I will be left alone in my pain.
Today, as the shadow of martyrdom invades
The sad sanctuary of my soul in pain,
Your memory emerges as a hope
Bringing me the nectar of your blossoming lips.
Sighing, I recall so many happy days
Of infinite happiness that I will not forget
And in my sad nights full of nostalgia
I will think of you to keep on living.
Why will I stop missing you
I will miss you my whole life
I may succumb maybe
I will be left alone in my pain.
