Breath of Life 

It makes me forget the immense longing I feel for the past,
Accept the gift with love,
And the future...
Forget that it's coming.
 

 Joy blooms in my heart,
With the same intensity
With which flowers are born in spring,
And the immense strength of the cold when winter arrives.

 Life, I need to feel
The same joy of birds at dawn,
The same joy of the child discovering life,
And so... to be able to convey to everyone only joy.
 

 Take from me Life,
The constant concern for the people I love.
It makes me trust more in this God who gives us everything,
Even if we don't ask.
 

 It makes me understand, accept...
That my children do not belong to me.
It makes me forget the immense longing I feel for the past,
Accept the gift with love...
 

And the future forgets that it's coming.
