Sombras, nada más [English translation]

I would like to cut open my veins slowly, all my

blood pouring out at your feet.

To be able to show you that I cannot love you more,

and then die afterwards.

And yet your blue eyes,

blue as the sky and the sea

they remain closed to me

Without seeing that I am so

lost in my loneliness

Shadows, nothing more

Caressing my hands

Shadows, nothing more, in the trembling of my voice

I could be happy and I am dying in life,

and between tears living the passage most horrendous

of this drama without end.

Shadows, nothing more, between your life and my life,

Shadows, nothing more, between your love and my love.

How brief was your presence in my weariness

How tepid were your hands, your voice,

like a firefly came your light,

and dispelled the shadows of my corner

And I remained like a trembling elf,

without the blue sea of your eyes

that have been closed to me

Without seeing that I am here, lost in my loneliness.

Shadows, nothing more, caressing my hands

Shadows, nothing more, in the trembling of my voice.

I could be happy and I am dying in life

And between tears living the passage most horrendous

of this drama without end

Shadows, nothing more, between your life and my life

Shadows, nothing more, between your love and my love...
