Here's the English translation of the lyrics:
Your eyes were the mirror of your soul,
reflecting the simplicity of your life:
a ball, a bowl full of food,
finding a way to climb onto the bed.
You chased the wind, almost catching it,
and at night, exhausted, you fell asleep.
I never knew what you dreamed of,
but I knew how much you loved me.
You were always there through thick and thin
and celebrated my joy like crazy.
In my sadness, you approached, licked me,
trying to heal the wounds of my soul.
I want to know:
if you'll be there,
waiting behind the door for me to arrive
to play ball in the garden
and splash around in the puddles when it rains.
I want to know
if you'll wait
for this clumsy human friend who loves you.
To see you finally catch the wind and know
what you dream of in your sleep.
Dear Friend, today I write you these words
and turn my love into this melody.
Today fate separates us forever,
my heart is dying of melancholy.
I want to believe that on the other side of life,
you'll be there with your ball waiting,
to open the door and find your joy
and that eternity cannot separate us.
You'll be my friend and companion forever,
you'll be eternal in my memory as long as I live,
now I feel that I'm not afraid of death
because you're there waiting for me to follow.
I want to know:
if you'll be there,
waiting behind the door for me to arrive
to play ball in the garden
and splash around in the puddles when it rains.
I want to know
if you'll wait
for this clumsy human friend who loves you.
To see you finally catch the wind and know
what you dream of in your sleep.more
