Do you remember
The path where we met,
Long, long ago,
Long, long ago?
That's when you told me
You can not forget,
Long, long ago,
Long ago.
Then, to all others
My smile you preferred,
Love, when you spoke,
Gave a charm to each word,
Still my heart treasures

The praises I heard,
Long, long ago,
Long ago.
You by more eloquent
Lips have been praised,
Long, long ago,
Long ago.
But by long absence
Your truth has been tried,
Still to your accents
I listen with pride,
Blessed as I was
When I sat by your side,
Long, long ago,
Long ago.
