Misterios

With the key in handCon la llave en la mano
He put it in the doorLa puso en la puerta
Turned left and openedGiró a la izquierda y abrió

He wanted to return to the nightÉl quería volver a la noche
That he desired so muchQue tanto deseaba
That he always soughtQue siempre buscó

In a tale without witches or fairiesEn un cuento sin brujas ni hadas
He looked at the moonMiró a la luna
It always listened to himSiempre lo escuchó

He told her that this dreamLe contó que ese sueño
Awakened dormant mysteriesDespertaba misterios dormidos
In his heartEn su corazón

If I could miss you one day, he saidSi pudiera extrañarte un día, decía
I would be far from youEstaría muy lejos de vos
A father without children prayed to himLe rezaba un padre sin hijos
Who was not a prophet of his religionQue no era profeta de su religión

That tree in front of himEse árbol que está frente suyo
Witness of the old one was born one dayTestigo del viejo algún día nació
Sunburned from so many summers without waterInsolado de tantos veranos sin agua
He looks at it and asks for forgivenessLo mira y le pide perdón

The mirror reflectsEl espejo refleja
His deep, innocent essenceSu esencia profunda, inocente
That no one educatedQue nadie educó

It's the inheritance of a whole pathEs herencia de todo un camino
Loaded with sadnessCargado en tristeza
And free from resentmentY ajeno al rencor

The desert in the moonless nightEl desierto en la noche sin luna
Is so darkEstá tan oscuro
That you can seeQue se puede ver

The stars are dice thrownLas estrellas son dados tirados
From a macabre gameDe un juego macabro
UnsolvedSin resolver

If I could miss you one day, he saidSi pudiera extrañarte un día, decía
I would be far from youEstaría muy lejos de vos
A father without children prayed to himLe rezaba un padre sin hijos
Who was not a prophet of his religionQue no era profeta de su religión

That tree in front of himEse árbol que está frente suyo
Witness of the old one was born one dayTestigo del viejo algún día nació
Sunburned from so many summers without waterInsolado de tantos veranos sin agua
He looks at it and asks for forgivenessLo mira y le pide perdón
