I left my country
I left my home
My life, my sad life
Drags on without reason

I left my sun
I left my blue sea
Their memories awaken
Long after my farewell

Sun!
Sun of my lost country
Of the white cities I loved
Of the girls I once knew

I left a friend
I still see her eyes
Her eyes wet with rain
The rain of farewell

I see her smile again
So close to my face
It made the evenings of my village
Shine brightly

But, from the edge of the boat
That was taking me away from the quay
A chain in the water
Snapped like a whip

I watched for a long time
Her blue eyes that were fleeing
The sea drowned them
In the tide of regret
