Te Quiero

I Love You

Te Quiero

Since I saw your eyes, brunetteDesde que vi tus ojos, morena
The days for me have been poemsLos días para mi han sido, poemas
Because with your gaze the footprintsPorque con tu mirada las huellas
Of sorrows that plagued my soulDe penas que azotaban mi alma
They fled like a traveling cloudSe fugaron cual nube viajera
Who died in the stormQue murió en la tempestad
And my sincere verses were bornY nacieron mis coplas sinceras
Like waters from stormsComo de las tormentas las aguas
That are born crystalline and tenderQue nacen cristalinas y tiernas
Radiant with immensityRadiantes de inmensidad
With my illusion I will live, brunetteCon mi ilusión viviré, morena
Because your eyes give eternal lifePorque tus ojos dan vida eterna

You might say, seeing me hereTal vez dirás, al verme aquí
Singing your serenadeCantando tu serenata
That is not so, that is not trueQue no es así, que no es verdad
That these are things that happenQue esas son cosas que pasan
But I adore you, it's not a whimPero te adoro, no es un capricho
It is not a whim, if it comes from the soulNo es un capricho, si nace del alma

Before he was the pilgrim without landAntes era el peregrino sin tierra
And I found my love, I stay, I stayY encontré mi amor, me quedo, me quedo
It will never be heard again, far away, so far awayNo se oirá jamás, muy lejos, tan lejos
A sad fluttering of a passing birdUn triste aletear de ave pasajera
That goes without ceasing through the wide skyQue va sin cesar por el ancho cielo
I would like to intoxicate my love with your kissesQuisiera embriagar, mi amor con tus besos
And make you feel true passionY hacerte sentir pasión verdadera
And you hear from meY escuches de mi
I love you, I love you brunetteTe quiero, te quiero morena

If your smile is pure, brunetteSi pura es tu sonrisa, morena
How will your crying be, your sorrowsComo será tu llanto, tus penas
If the most beautiful of beings suffersSi sufre el más bello de los seres
Longing for his old lovesAñorando sus viejos quereres
Her tears would be like sparksSerían sus lágrimas cual centellas
That they would go to heaven with their lightQue al cielo irían con su luz
Because between suns of dawnsPorque entre soles de amaneceres
Because between clouds of sunsetsPorque entre nubes de atardeceres
And of dusks among starsY de anocheceres entre estrellas
You are much more beautifulMucho más bella eres tú
I want to have the privilegeYo quiero tener el privilegio
From the exquisite candor of your kissesDel exquisito candor de tus besos

Maybe you will say, seeing me here, singingTal vez dirás, al verme aquí, cantando
Your serenade that is not like that, that is notTu serenata que no es así, que no es
True, these are things that happenVerdad, que esas son cosas que pasan
But I adore you, it's not a whim, it's notPero te adoro, no e Sun capricho, no es
A whim if it comes from the soulUn capricho si nace del alma
Last night I had the most beautiful dreamAnoche tuve el más hermoso sueño
You walked very sadly among rosesCaminabas tu muy triste entre rosas
I begged you to let me be the ownerYo te supliqué déjame ser dueño
From your sigh, your soft hairDe tu suspirar, tus suaves cabellos
Waterfall of light, radiating starsCascada de luz, que irradia luceros
And I swore to you that my love affair is eternalY yo te juré mi idilio es eterno
And like a miracle, silence fellY como un milagro cayó el silencio
And I heard your voice, sayingY escuche tu voz, diciendo
I love you, I love youTe quiero, te quiero
