Translation:
On that fragrant morning, the hills were still sleeping
The moon was still holding her place.
I quietly opened, our rickety gate and threw all I had on my back
My mother dear was walking behind me, silently watching the ground
She couldn’t know what I felt in my soul
And why I did not speak a word since last night,
There’s just too much that we needed to say,
But somehow we simply could not.
As we passed by the last friendly house
suddenly tears filled my eyes.
Since I didn’t want my mother no notice I raised my face to the sky.
Around me the roses greeted the morning, it was the springtime in May
Not even once could I look back behind me,
My sadness had stopped me from saying Goodbye,
But the one thing I did was, I promised those hills
that I will be back someday.
