Excuse

My heart always thinks of
a sad thought.
And no matter what happens to me:
if I become someone’s
faithful wife,
or somebody’s sweetheart,
or whatever else;
or if I always remain
a humble dreamer.
If my soul becomes a sacred habitat
of a love;
or my heart a painful core
of all gentleness,
you should always love me;

Because my heart always thinks of
a sad thought
that hurts only me.

And whatever I start,
noble or wicked:
if I manage to grieve for others,
or if I buy a happiness for my soul
with somebody else’s pain;
if I sometimes forgive,
or I always vengeance,
you should know that I have long ago,
paid the price for all my sins,
you should know that I have long ago,
made penance for everything,
and you should always forgive me:

Because my heart always thinks of
a sad thought
that makes only me sad.
