Oh you merry merry spirit!
Such beauty in your waltz
Such tenderness in the notes
Such passion in the rubato
And yet
I sense a drop of melancholy within it
tinting its harmony with a saccharine quality.
The soft sighs - the aching of the heart itself
Reaches deep into my shadow, my mind and my soul
Why? Oh why
Do the tears warm my cheeks?
Do the keys seem like a soft reflection?
Do the strings sing to me like an eternal nightingale?
And yet
They all disappear, the rustic breeze of wind sending them away.
Your lovely presence departs
The piano
My innocent hands touch it
It will keep singing, because of what you had left behind
You will keep living, because of your elegance and misery
I will keep playing, because of my love for you
Until we meet again - my dear Chopin.
