Relicario de Besos

Relic of Kisses

Relicario de Besos

Change straw in a nestCambie de paja en un nido
Another is the site of the bedOtro es el sitio del lecho
Another blood swells my veinsOtra sangre hincha mis venas
I broke all the chainsRompí todas las cadenas
Another love entered my chestOtro amor entró en mi pecho

The bells no longer ringYa no doblan las campanas
That used to bend through itQue antes doblaban por ella
Now my morning is differentAhora es otra mi mañana
Because now through my windowPorque ahora por mi ventana
The light of another star entersEntra la luz de otra estrella

Because if that reliquary of kissesPorque si aquel relicario de besos
That I would offer you made to oblivionQue yo te ofreciera hechas al olvido
Crucified and trembling with rageCrucificado y temblando de rabia
With tears in his eyes he destroyed the nestCon llanto en los ojos desbarató el nido

Because if that reliquary of kissesPorque si aquel relicario de besos
That I would offer you made to oblivionQue yo te ofreciera hechas al olvido
Crucified and trembling with rageCrucificado y temblando de rabia
With tears in his eyes he destroyed the nestCon llanto en los ojos desbarató el nido

I have a happy heartTengo un corazón alegre
Like a village festivalComo una fiesta del pueblo
But if you leave my black girlPero si te vas mi negra
There will be nothing that will make him happyNo habrá nada que lo alegre
Only dressed in mourningSolo vestida de duelo

Songbirds chirpTrinan pájaros cantores
When love is bornCuando el amor van naciendo
Threatening vulturesBuitres amenazadores
They fly over heartsVuelan sobre corazones
And love is dyingY el amor se está muriendo
Because if that reliquary of kissesPorque si aquel relicario de besos
That I would offer you made to oblivionQue yo te ofreciera hechas al olvido
Crucified and trembling with rageCrucificado y temblando de rabia
With tears in his eyes he destroyed the nestCon llanto en los ojos desbarató el nido

Because if that reliquary of kissesPorque si aquel relicario de besos
That I would offer you made to oblivionQue yo te ofreciera hechas al olvido
Crucified and trembling with rageCrucificado y temblando de rabia
With tears in his eyes he destroyed the nestCon llanto en los ojos desbarató el nido
