THE SAND WILL REMEMBER
The sand will remember the waves But the foam – will not be remembered, Besides by those who passed with the late night wind. From their memory it will never be erased.
All will return to the depths of the sea Except the white foam. The candles of the night died out, The friendship, the love, The youth, that came to an abrupt end.
On the beaches of their hearts too, Quivered then something pale And they drew in the sand When the passing moon Suddenly lit a distant face and a faint laugh All will return to the depths of the sea Except the white foam. The candles of the night died out, The friendship, the love, The youth, that came to an abrupt end.
There were empty shells there That roared the lament of the sea. And a cemetery on the hills, And two that passed in silence, Between the flowers and the graves and the sycamore.
All will return to the depths of the sea Except the white foam. The candles of the night died out, The friendship, the love, The youth, that came to an abrupt end.
