Cinco Minutos

Five Minutes

Cinco Minutos

I would like five minutesQuisiera cinco minutos
A good mirror, an old spotlightUn buen espejo, un foco viejo
And a heartY corazón

To look at myself openlyMirarme abiertamente
After undressing to show myselfTras desnudarme para mostrarme
Just as I amTal como soy
I would like five minutesQuisiera cinco minutos

To stay still with my secretsQuedarme quieto con mis secretos
And meditateY meditar
Tell myself for a momentDecirme por un instante
If it's already enoughSi ya es bastante
Or if I have the enduranceO tengo aguante
For something morePara algo más

And see to what extentY ver hasta qué punto
It's worth itVale la pena
To go from wind to windAndar de viento en viento
Being a weathervaneHaciendo de veleta
And see to what extentY ver hasta qué punto
It's naturalEs natural

To seek the wavesBuscarse uno las olas
And create a stormY hacerse un temporal
I would like five minutesQuisiera cinco minutos
A flat roof over my handsUn techo plano sobre mis manos
And some lightY algo de luz
And talk to myself franklyY hablarme de pillo a pillo
And ask myself without escapingY preguntarme sin escaparme
What are you looking forQué buscas tú

I would like five minutesQuisiera cinco minutos
A fine steel and open myself completelyUn fino acero y abrirme entero
Wide openDe par en par
Judge myself honestlyJuzgarme honestamente
Wipe my forehead and simplySecar mi frente y simplemente
ReflectReflexionar

And see to what extentY ver hasta qué punto
It's worth itVale la pena
To go from wind to windAndar de viento en viento
Being a weathervaneHaciendo de veleta
And see to what extentY ver hasta qué punto
It's naturalEs natural
To seek the wavesBuscarse uno las olas
And create a stormY hacerse un temporal
And see to what extentY ver hasta qué punto
I have the honorTengo el honor
Of being myselfDe ser yo de mí mismo
My slave or my lordMi esclavo o mi señor

And I have five minutesY tengo cinco minutos
What I don't have is courageLo que no tengo es valor
