One beautiful day
Or was it a night?
Near a lake, I had fallen asleep
When suddenly, seeming to pierce the sky
And coming from nowhere
A black eagle appeared

Slowly, with wings spread
Slowly, I saw it circling
Near me, in a rustling of wings
As if fallen from the sky
The bird came to rest

It had ruby-colored eyes
And feathers the color of the night
On its forehead, shining with a thousand lights
The crowned king bird
Wore a blue diamond

With its beak, it touched my cheek
In my hand, it slipped its neck
That's when I recognized it
Emerging from the past
It had returned to me

Say bird, Oh say, take me
Let's go back to the country of the past
Like before, in my childhood dreams
To tremblingly pick
Stars, stars

Like before, in my childhood dreams
Like before, on a white cloud
Like before, light up the sun
Be a rainmaker
And perform wonders

The black eagle, in a rustling of wings
Took flight to return to the sky

One beautiful day, or maybe a night?
Near a lake I had fallen asleep
When suddenly, seeming to pierce the sky
And coming from nowhere
A black eagle appeared

One beautiful day, or was it a night?
Near a lake I had fallen asleep
When suddenly, seeming to pierce the sky
And coming from nowhere
A black eagle appeared

One beautiful day, or a night?
Near a lake, asleep
When suddenly
It came from nowhere
A black eagle appeared

One beautiful day
