True Love Is Never Forgotten

I have never forgotten our love And I will never forget it until I die Many years of sorrow have passed But the wound in my heart has never healed Remember the many kisses we exchanged Remember all the tears we shed The burning kisses and the scalding tears That to the depths of the sea have gone I have not forgotten this love How could you have forgotten it? A love that bound us like a chain A chain that can never be broken You still return to me in my dreams at night Before my eyes I see you every day How many sweet nights we passed together How cruel the destiny that has betrayed us. No peace shall it find in the presence of God This infamous cruel destiny that betrayed us Infamous - cruel and heartless That separated us for all eternity What remains is just your picture for remembrance I never grow weary of gazing upon it I kiss it, I bathe it with my tears, I hold it to my heart And weep for the sad ending of our love. -------------------------------------------------------------------- O Vera Ammore Non Si Scorda Mai Numaggio mai scurdate e chesta ammore E nummo scorde chiu' sino che' more Sono passati tant'anni di dolore E num si e' chiuse chiu' sta chiaga o core Ricordi quanti vase ce simmo date Ricordi quante lacrimo chiagnute Vase e fuoche e lacrime cucente Che tutte a funne o mare sene' so ghiute Io non meso' scordate a chesta ammore Tu comme tu putive mai scurda' E' stato nammore troppo incatenato Catene che nun si ponne mai spezza' Mi viene ancora nsuonno tutte e' notte Ti vego o iotnre nante all'uocchi miei Quante nuttate doce avimmo passate E penza e distino nfame che cia' tradute Nun'anna trava' pace nanzi a dio Chella nfama ca ci fece o trarimento Nfame e scelleratee senza core Ci fece sparte a nuie etermamente Me' remase o ritratto tuoi pe ricordo Nun me stancasso mai du guarda' O' vase o' bagne e lacrime mo strengo o' core E chigane a fine triste e checsta ammore.

Desperately sad and deeply beautiful. Wish I could translate the rest.
