Ojos Brujos

Bewitching Eyes

Ojos Brujos

What magical powers are hidden in your eyes?¿Qué mágicos poderes se encierran en sus ojos?
That remained stuck in my poor heartQue quedaron clavados en mi pobre corazón
That I live as a prisoner submissive to your whimsQue vivo prisionero sumiso a sus antojos
And shine in my dreams like a visionY brillan en mis sueños igual que una visión

What strange expressions radiate from your pupilsQue extrañas expresiones irradian tus pupilas
That when I gaze at them in silent adorationQue cuando las contemplo en muda adoración
They seem like two shining volcanoes that dazzleParecen dos volcanes luceros que encandilan
Abysses where a passion sinks and dreamsAbismos donde se hunde y sueña una pasión

Bewitching eyes that were born to torture my soulOjos brujos que nacieron para torturar mi alma
They steal my sleep; they take away my calm; they give me joys; sorrows and painMe roban el sueño; me quitan la calma; me dan alegrías; penas y dolor
Beautiful eyes that I adore so much full of beautyOjos bellos que yo adoro tanto llenos de hermosura
And even though they are the cause of my bitternessY aunque son motivos de mis amarguras
Looking at them, I want to die!¡Mirándome en ellos quiero morir yo!

What does your gaze, woman, have that fascinates me?¿Qué tiene tu mirada mujer que me fascina?
If you look with tenderness, you increase my passionSi miras con ternura aumentas mi pasión
If you look with anger, your eyes dominate meSi miras con enojo tus ojos me dominan
If you do it with sadness, I die of painSi lo haces con tristeza me muero de dolor

That sometimes even the flowersQue a veces a su paso hasta las mismas flores
Bow with tenderness at your passing, offer themselves with loveSe inclinan con ternura, le brindan con amor
From your bewitching eyes, the pale gleamsDe tus ojos brujos los pálidos fulgores
I have heard that they wound and kill treacherouslyHe escuchado que hieren y matan a traición
