Santa Maria English translation
von Roland Kaiser

Santa Maria
Island born from dreams
I have lost my senses
In the fever that burns like fire

Santa Maria
At night on your snow-white beaches
I held her youth in my hands
Happiness for which there is no name

She was a child of the sun, beautiful like an awakening morning
Her proud gaze was hot and deep inside her
Burned the longing
Santa Maria (Maria), to take the step
Santa Maria (Maria), from girl to woman


Santa Maria
Island born from dreams
I have lost my senses
In the fever that burns like fire

Santa Maria
Her wildness let me experience
With her, soar on colorful wings
To a distant, unknown land

Helplessly, I drifted, caught in the magic of her smile
But when the day awoke, I saw the tears on her cheeks
Morning meant farewell
Santa Maria (Maria) and my homeland
Santa Maria (Maria) was so infinitely far

Santa Maria
Island born from dreams
I have lost my senses
In the fever that burns like fire


Santa Maria
Never again have I felt
Like in the intoxication of the nightly hours
The memory, it will never fade
