Playing music while others wait…

None shall sleep! None shall sleep! You too, princess,
In your cold room
You watch the stars
Trembling of love and hope…

But my secret is locked within me
No one will know my name!
No, no, I will say it on your mouth,
When the light will shine!
And my kiss will melt the silence
That makes you mine.

No one will know my name…
And we will, unfortunately, have to die, die!

Leave, oh night! Set, stars!
Set, stars! At sunrise I will win!
I will win! I will win!

~”None Shall Sleep!”, Puccini (“Nessun Dorma”: English Translation)
