Don't wake me if I'm dreaming,
for there, in my world of fantasy,

you are mine, so real I can touch you,

feel the softness of your skin,

inhale that rose-scented perfume that intoxicates my soul.

Don't wake me, I beg you,

because in that dream, I can love you without limits,

I can whisper in your ear all the words

that remain trapped in wakefulness.

There, among sighs and stars,

I have you by my side,

no distances, no barriers,

just us, beating to the same rhythm.

Don't wake me, for when I open my eyes,

the emptiness weighs more than reality,

and I’d rather lose myself eternally

in the sweet illusion of having you

than face another day without you.
