With My Shadow

Facundo Saravia

Con Mi Sombra

Muda como sigilosa
se mueve a mi alrededor
se desprende de mi cuerpo
y me dice que soy yo

Mi sombra viene conmigo
sin saber a donde va
no se queja por el tranco,
ella me sigue no mas

Muchas veces va adelante
y me imita al caminar
y no me pierde de vista
cuando camina detrás

Hay sombras que palidecen
dentro de la oscuridad
y otras que tienen luz propia,
nadie las ha de_apagar

Con lo poco que le ofrezco,
tal vez me quiera dejar
ella no me cuesta nada
y nunca me pide de más

Sombra que siempre me asombra,
sombra que no hay otra igual
para bailar chacarera
cuando me escucha silbar

Hay quienes nunca han tenido
y no la merecen tener
si su sombra no aparece
por algo debe de ser

Hay sombras que palidecen

With My Shadow

Quietly as stealthy
it moves around me
it detaches from my body
and tells me it's me

My shadow comes with me
doesn't know where it's going
doesn't complain about the pace,
she just follows me

Many times she goes ahead
and imitates my walk
and never loses sight of me
when she walks behind

There are shadows that pale
within the darkness
and others that have their own light,
no one will put them out

With the little I offer her,
maybe she'll want to leave me
she doesn't cost me anything
and never asks for more

Shadow that always amazes me,
shadow like no other
for dancing chacarera
to the sound of my whistle

There are those who have never had
and don't deserve to have
if their shadow doesn't appear
it must be for a reason

There are shadows that pale
