Espejos

Mirrors

Espejos

In my grandfather's houseEn la casa de mi abuelo
there was a landing with a mirror,había un palier con un espejo,
in front of another mirror, in front of another mirror,frente a otro espejo, frente a otro espejo,
in front of another mirror, another mirror, another mirror...frente a otro espejo, otro espejo, otro espejo...

I peeked with anticipation,Asomaba con expectativa,
my whole arm, and I moved it,todo mi brazo, y lo movía,
over another arm, another arm, another arm...sobre otro brazo, otro brazo, otro brazo...

I climbed onto the armchair that wasSubía al sillón que estaba,
under a mirror and from there I jumped,bajo un espejo y desde allí saltaba,
to the chair in front, waiting for me,al sillón de enfrente, que me esperaba,
and to the next one, to the next one, to the next one... aha hay al que seguía, al que seguía, al que seguía... aha ha

And the path twisted slowly,Y el camino se torcía lentamente,
the mirrors showed it to the people;los espejos lo mostraban a la gente;
I jumped the hallways,yo saltaba los pasillos,
and although everything lost its shine,y aunque todo perdía brillo,
the game awaited me in the end... aha hala partida me esperaba finalmente... aha ha

In all those hallwaysEn todos esos pasillos
I was crossing dangersyo iba cruzando peligros
that waited, that silently lurked me.que esperaban, que en silencio me acechaban.
One with snakes,Uno con serpientes,
with soldiers the next one,con soldados el siguiente,
and beyond, one with a river of lava.y el de mas allá, con un río de lava.

There was a hallway, that had a rake,Había un pasillo, que tenía un rastrillo,
that if I didn't jump right, it dragged me.que si no saltaba justo, me arrastraba.
There was one with hairs, another where the floor was the sky,Había uno con pelos, otro que el piso era el cielo,
and luckily there, the armchairs floated... aha hay ahí por suerte, los sillones flotaban... aha ha

And the path twisted slowly...Y el camino se torcía lentamente...

In my grandfather's houseEn la casa de mi abuelo
there was a landing with a mirror,había un palier con un espejo,
in front of another mirror, in front of another mirror,frente a otro espejo, frente a otro espejo,
in front of another mirror, another mirror, another mirror...frente a otro espejo, otro espejo, otro espejo..
