A blue rose

Una rosa blu

A blue rose is so specialUna rosa blu es tan especial
It's almost innocent, yet so strong at the same timeEs casi inocente, a la vez tan fuerte
It doesn't fadeNo se difumina

And, with a single detail, it can bewitch youY, con un detalle, te puede hechizar
Because its thorns can cut the lifePorque sus espinas pueden cortar la vida
Of the one who loves it the mostDe quien la ama más

But if it were yoursPero si fuera tuya
Its scent would make a single moment worthwhileSu perfume haría que un instante valga
More intense than an eternityPor intenso más que una eternidad

You would be its spring seasonTú serás su estación de primavera
It would open up to you confidently and beautifullyElla se abrira a ti segura y bella
And, in your heart, the blue rose would throw downY, en tu pecho, echara la rosa blu
Roots to live and leave its mark withRaíces para vivir y dejar su huella

You would feel it on your skinSentirás en tu piel
You can't even imagine how it can grow in a single dayNi te imaginas cómo puede crecer ella en un solo día
That so much velvet won't fit on your bodyQue no te cabe en el cuerpo tanto terciopelo
With its petals, it will caress you completelyCon sus pétalos va acariciándote entero

A blue rose will please youUna rosa blu te va a complacer
Sweet yet wicked, she's more diverse than your fantasiesDulce cual perversa. Ella es más diversa que tus fantasías
A blue rose is so differentUna rosa blu es tan diferente
The world fears what it doesn't understand, even if it's a flowerQue el mundo le teme a lo que no entiende, aunque sea una flor

They want to hide it, to let it not be seenLa quieren ocultar, que no la vean
But how does one hide so much beauty?¿Pero cómo ocultar tanta belleza?
If the wind that touches it is melodicSi el viento que la toca es melodía
And its intoxicating aroma smells of poetryY embriagante su aroma huele a poesía

It makes faith waverHace dudar la fe
And, here, a little piece of life seeking companionshipY el aquí, un pedacito de vida buscando compañía
Needs a voice to tell it: I love youNecesita una voz que le diga: Te amo
When it opens up completely before falling deadCuando se abra completa antes de caer muerta

It would live in the mind that it bewitches, if it were yoursSi fuera tuya viviría en la mente que hechiza

At least for that dayAl menos por ese día
For, truly, the blue rosePues en verdad, la rosa blu
Sweet, yet perverse, is no fantasyDulce, cual perversa, no es fantasía

But a blue rose is forever lovedMás una rosa blu se ama siempre bien
Tomorrow you will cryMañana llorarás
You must not forget that it only lives for one dayNo debes ignorar que solo vive un día
And the agony is eternal (eternal is the agony)Y eternal es la agonía (eterna es la agonía)

It only lives for one daySolo vive un día
One dayUn día
