Flor de Loto

A farewell was never so briefNunca fue tan breve una despedida
I never believed it was finalNunca me creí que fuera definitiva
I never loved anyone so much in my lifeNunca quise tanto a nadie en mi vida
I never called a stranger my familyNunca a un ser extraño le llamé mi familia

I never had faith in my philosophyNunca tuve fe en mi filosofía
I never had a guru or guideNunca tuve yo ni gurú ni guía
I never despised a lost causeNunca desprecié una causa perdida
I will never deny they are my favoritesNunca negaré que son mis favoritas

This is my lotus flower and I was its shadowEsta es mi flor de loto y yo era su sombra
This is my lotus flower,Esta es mi flor de loto,
My world will not clear upMi mundo no se aclarará
So much wandering to not keepTanto vagar para no conservar
Never anything.Nunca nada.

A flame never remains litNunca una llama permanece encendida
I never endured its heat, never again, never more than a dayNunca aguanté su calor, nunca más, nunca más de un día
I never endured being an invaded soulNunca soporté ser un alma invadida
Until I saw before me for whom I would dieHasta que ví frente a mí por quien yo moriría

This is my lotus flower and I was its shadowEsta es mi flor de loto y yo era su sombra
This is my lotus flower,Esta es mi flor de loto,
My world will not clear upMi mundo no se aclarará
So much wandering to not keepTanto vagar para no conservar
Never anything.Nunca nada.

Will you rectify¿Querrás tu rectificar
The lines of my hands?Las líneas de mis manos?
Who will randomly scatter¿Quién esparcirá al azar
The coffee grounds?Los posos del café?
And what did the crystal ball sayY¿qué decía la bola de cristal
When it started to roll?Cuando echó a rodar?
What more could I need?¿Qué más puedo necesitar?
Do I have anything to lose?¿Tengo algo que perder?.
