Torre de arena [English translation]

My sighs are like a cry

From my soul, God help me,

Faithful witnesses of the agony

That's burning my heart

In the night of my misfortune there is not

Even a little star that comes to light up

This path of eternal bitterness

Which, sad and dark,

I don't know where [it] goes...

This path of eternal bitterness

Which, sad and dark,

I don't know where [it] goes...

Chorus:

Tower of sand

That my love knew how to build

Tower of sand

Where my life wanted to remain

Night without moon,

River without water, flower without smell...

All is a lie, all is a delusion

All is a madness of my pain

Like a flower which loses its petals to the wind

My heart is dying

And little by little my suffering

Is carrying away all my love

Like a spring, silent and lifeless

Like a little ship that loses its helm

Like a flower taken from a rosebush

It's painful

My poor delusion...

Like a flower taken from a rosebush

It's painful

My poor delusion...

{Chorus}
