Ten more summers pleased the land Ten more winters numbed the landscape
Time is running quickly But in my brain a terrible dream never ends I try to escape from my past I'm damned to suffer a whole life!
Life is a long and silent river
She grows up - shy, alone and sad Other kids - kept away from her Her mother - was divorced long ago No more love - only alcohol
Life is a long and silent river
No real friends - for the little girl Nobody understands - what's wrong with her Her classmates - cheat her all the time The silent girl - is discriminated against

People are shouting at me "You stupid girl! How strange you are - never spoke!" I try to escape from my past I'm damned to suffer a whole life!
