I cannot speed up or hasten the time,
But I'm waiting for this big and glorious day.
My poor heart is thirsty for words of love,
Which can open the door of a marvelous spring.
I'm waiting for this illustrious and memorable day,
Where, by accident, you will call me ' honey or love'.
Woman, with big and shiny eyes, I dream all the time
At this idyllic event, at this happy moment.
The daytime stars will twinkle in triple in the sky,
And the birds will circle the moon-shaped rainbow.
My poor heart, finally, will exhale with joy and festivity,
And my poor soul will drown ecstatically in sheer beauty.
I'm waiting for this phenomenal day, my love,
Where I'm going to smile for a whole afternoon.
And you, woman of the hour, will sigh all night long,
Like a jubilant goddess on the velvet bedspread.
