Si tú supieras compañero [English translation]

Take this golden dagger

and from all corners

stab and stab me

but say not that you forget me

since the air that you carry

when you promenade

might even extinguish

the light of my carriage.

Although my body has traversed

of the world leagues upon leagues

since here is where I left my soul

I have now come for it.

Although my body has traversed

of the world leagues upon leagues.

Take this golden dagger

and from all corners

stab and stab me

but say not that you forget me

since the air that you carry

when you promenade

might even extinguish

the light of my carriage.

If I were to find, my friend

that the sun offends you

when it rises

I would fight it

even if it killed me.

Mother, the queen of mine

has for eyelashes two black fans.

Girl, those eyelashes

not another has them in all of Spain.

I paint and paint you

in the faint light of the brazier

and at once I burn

in my love for you.

Oh, Saint Raphael!

To be so close to water and unable to drink it!
