Al Final Del Sendero

At the End of the Path

Al Final Del Sendero

I felt at the end of the pathYo sentí en el final del sendero
The infinite crying of a womanEl llanto infinito de una mujer
Who held a poem in her handsQue empuñaba un poema en sus manos
Written by someone she once knewEscrito por alguien que un día conoció
He was that inhabitant of the worldEra aquel habitante del mundo
Of the sensitive soul who wanted to haveDel alma sensible que quiso tener
The love that was impossible for himEl amor que le fue un imposible
And upon seeing his destiny, his life endedY al ver su destino su vida acabó

No one knows who was to blameNadie sabe quién tuvo la culpa
She could never give him what he was asking forElla nunca le pudo entregar lo que estaba pidiendo
A little bit of affection, even if just for a momentUn poquito de cariño, así fuera un instante
And, although she wanted to, her heart never obeyedY, aunque quiso, nunca le obedeció el corazón

And today she singsY hoy canta
Lonely verses born from a manVersos solitarios que nacen de un hombre
Who flew away with wingsQue se fue volando con alas
Made of unfulfilled illusionsHechas de ilusiones que no realizó

Where is he?¿Dónde está?
In heaven perhapsEn el cielo tal vez
A loveUn amor
Marked his endSeñaló su final

I found at the end of the pathYo encontré en el final del sendero
The fallen dreams of that heartLos sueños caídos de aquel corazón
Which in its eagerness to find illusionsQue en su afán de encontrar ilusiones
Suffered a thousand deceptions trying to loveSufrió mil engaños tratando de amar
And now she remembers that manY ahora ella recuerda a aquel hombre
Who placed that song in her handsQue puso en sus manos aquella canción
And she would like to give him her soulY quisiera entregarle su alma
But it's too late; the cross was the endPero ya es muy tarde; la cruz fue el final

I don't know if it's brave or cowardlyYo no sé si es valiente o cobarde
The fatal decision to erase with his blood the sorrowsLa fatal decisión de borrar con su sangre las penas
That came from looking at someone unattainableQue llegaron por mirar a alguien inalcanzable
Who doesn't know they are offered happinessQue no sabe que le ofrecen la felicidad

And they say todayY hoy cuentan
That he had in his hands the sacred photoQue tenía en sus manos la foto sagrada
Of that girl and a verseDe aquella muchacha y un verso
To some black eyes that never sangA unos ojos negros que nunca cantó

Where is he?¿Dónde está?
In heaven perhapsEn el cielo tal vez
A loveUn amor
Marked his endSeñaló su final
