Оригинал на английском языке

великую любовь
обдумывал в мечтах
проигрывал во сне
сидел небрежно
ждал
когда она заплачет
заплакала
взял за руку
сам якобы смотрел
по сторонам

Just Coffee

He wanted bigger love,
had to have it like he
had to dream himself
to sleep. recrossed
his legs and waited
for her tears. when
they came, he held
her hand, pretended
to be interested in
someone walking by
their table.
