Let your being depart, let it fly away, let it fly,
Let it cross borders, let it seek other places.
Let it leave behind what the soul repels,
That which no longer makes your spirit beat.
Let it leave behind what sounds like old things,
What no longer moves you, what no longer fills you.
May you flee from that which is heavy and old,
Let him free himself from that which condemns him to die.
Let it set out on the road to a new feeling,
May it open up to horizons without looking back.
May he find in the distance a new future,
May he leave in oblivion what will be no more.
Fly, my love, fly without fear or ties,
And in your wings may my soul also hasten.
