English
I once listened to a musician
Playing  his old fiddle
He woke up my deepest thought
with the  song

 We drank to life
Like two brothers  do
I know whatever happen
I will never hear again

 Play again my fiddle
Play the old  song for me
Every single little string singing
It' a miracle for my  heart

 Play again my fiddle
Play the old song for me
Oh! A lot of time has passed
God, How I could find
Those  years back?

 Play Gop Gop....

 I lost the musician
But I hear his  violin
There aren't two musicians like him
But I hear his  violin

 We drank to life
Like two brothers  do
I know whatever happen
I will never hear again

 Play again my fiddle
Play the old  song for me
Oh! A lot of time has passed
God, How I could find
Those  years back?
 Play....
