Mi vanidad [English translation]

Since there is no evil

neither hunger

nor fear nor loneliness

there is no one who loves me

in this whole town

Since there is no pain

and nobody who suffers

from love

nobody but for me

No, I don’t want to forget

Cause, they do not sing any more

the way they used to

They now say

“let us have coffee

together and french kisses.

They do not sing any more

“I have to die without your love”

they do not cry out:

“I cannot suffer this any more,

I want to live…” Beautiful chant

Since there is no evil

the whole world laughs

about my anxiety

I call it poetry

they call it futility

Since there was no betrayal

my life is stripped bare

all without passion

and I do not know

what my heart is for

They do not sing any more

“I have to die without your love”

they do not cry out: “by now I cannot

bear the laughter

I want to suffer.” Beautiful chant.
