I read the letter,
That has yellowed with age.
On the envelope in the corner
Room-mail field stands.
This forty-second
My father wrote to my mother
Before you go
In his final, decisive battle.

Chorus:
My dear,
On the front we have a break.
Sleep in the trenches friends
Silence on the steep bank ...
My dear,
Kiss you tight little son.
Know that you are out of trouble
I always shore.

I read the letter.
And as if getting closer and closer
Disturbing the dawn
And the beating hearts of soldiers.
I read the letter.
And through the years clearly hear
I am now the words
I said before the fight father.

Chorus.

I read the letter.
And the windows of the sun laughs,
The day begins.
And the hearts continue to love.
I read the letter.
I am sure that if I have to,
Everything that made the father,
I'll be able to always repeat.

Chorus.
