saberei se você sento o mesmo amor

sólo amor, sin quejas.

Nel mondo giunse un uomo
Apri le porte adesso
E io so ora con certezza
Che l'amore è un mare immenso
Dove le onde sussurrano
Mi è più facile credere
Che anche tu amerai
Come me, le montagne
Apri le porte adesso
E io so ora con certezza
Che l'amore è un mare immenso
Dove le onde sussurrano
Mi è più facile credere
Che anche tu amerai
Come me, le montagne

У свет прыйшоў чалавек,
Адчыняйце дзвяры,
Разумею цяпер,
Што любві мора.
Там, дзе хвалі шумяць,
Мне лягчэй верыць,
Што палюбіш і ты,
Як і я горы.
Адчыняйце дзвяры,
Разумею цяпер,
Што любві мора.
Там, дзе хвалі шумяць,
Мне лягчэй верыць,
Што палюбіш і ты,
Як і я горы.

A soul's arrived in this realm of mine,
Unlock the door, let love entwine,
I've come to know, without delay,
Love's an ocean vast, where hearts can sway.
Where waves softly hum their song,
I trust that you'll come along,
To love the mountains, forever stay,
As I do, come what may.
And i will love you dearly,
Protect you oh so fiercely
Swim the ocean deeps to keep you near me
A soul's arrived in this world of mine,
Unlock the door, let love entwine,
I've come to know, without delay,
Love's an ocean vast, where hearts can sway.
Unlock the door, let love entwine,

Love's an ocean vast, where hearts can sway.

В свет пришел человек
Открывайте двери
И я знаю теперь,
Что любви — море
Там где волны шумят
Легче мне верить,
Что полюбишь и ты
Как и я — мир
Привет человек!
В этой новой вселенной
Нам будет весело и приключения будут такие
Ты только смотри
С твоим появлением все озаряется
То что цвело — сильней расцветает.
Это море внутри. Это море любви.
Это море любви. Это море любви.
Открывайте двери
