La Cinta Rosa

The Pink Ribbon

La Cinta Rosa

Chasing a dragonfly in a meadowPersiguiendo una libélula en un prado
One day they had fled from the pastUn día que habían huido del pasado
When I thought I had made itCuando ya creía que lo había logrado
I have failedHe fallado

A silly phrase has left me in suspenseUna frase tonta me ha dejado en suspenso
I was overwhelmed: It's not how I think it isMe ha abrumado: No es como yo la pienso
The feeling was too intenseEl sentimiento era demasiado intenso
And I have stayedY me he quedado

I don't knowNo sé
I don't know who you areNo sé quién eres
I don't know what you will beNo sé qué serás
I don't know what will become of usNo sé qué será de nosotros
We will learn it only by livingLo aprenderemos sólo viviendo

That's why I fear this tendernessTemo por eso esta ternura
Now that our adventureAhora que nuestra aventura
It's a true story nowEs una historia ya verdadera
I wish so much that you would be honest!¡Deseo tanto que seas sincera!

In this store that contains so many thingsEn esta tienda que contiene tantas cosas
And some are black, others green, others pinkY unas son negras, otras verdes, otras rosas
I must choose the one that suits my destinyDebo elegir la que conviene a mi destino
I don't know the wayNo sé el camino

I have returned with my purchase to my houseHe regresado con mi compra hasta mi casa
And I'm afraid of breaking the pink ribbonY tengo miedo de romper la cinta rosa
It is not the same to be wrong about somethingQue no es lo mismo equivocarse en una cosa
That in a wifeQue en una esposa

I don't knowNo sé
I don't know who you areNo sé quién eres
I don't know what you will beNo sé qué serás
I don't know what will become of usNo sé qué será de nosotros
We will learn it only by livingLo aprenderemos sólo viviendo

That's why I fear this tendernessTemo por eso esta ternura
Now that our adventure is a true storyAhora que nuestra aventura es una historia ya verdadera
I wish so much that you would be honest!¡Deseo tanto que seas sincera!
