El Sur Del Sur

The South of the South

El Sur Del Sur

In the south of the southAl sur del sur
there is a place that is forgotten,hay un sitio que está olvidado,
that is closed like a trunkque está cerrado como un baúl

the windel viento
crosses the street seeking sheltercruza la calle buscando abrigo
and there are no witnesses in the south of the southy no hay testigos al sur del sur

"don't go"no vayas
the road is not good..."la rutano es buena..."
-they tell me--me dicen-
"don't go"no vayas
it's not worth it..."no vale la pena..."

the timeel tiempo
in the south of the south, has stopped,al sur del sur, se ha detenido,
has been distracted with who knows whatse ha distraído con no se qué

and the airy el aire
is actually a gelatines en realidad una gelatina
so crystalline that it can't be seen.tan cristalina que no se ve.
"don't go"no vayas
the road doesn't exist,la ruta no existe,
don't say later:después no digas :
you didn't warn me"no me lo advertiste"

"don't lose"no pierdas
your place at the table",tu sitio en la mesa",
-they tell me--me dicen-
"don't go,"no vayas,
who cares?"¿a quien le interesa ?"

if there were in totalsi hubiera en total
two places,dos sitios,
it would be the second one,sería el segundo,
the end of the world,el fin del mundo,
the south of the south.el sur del sur.
