Gajo de Luz

Beam of Light

Gajo de Luz

Celestial cradle, diminished and coldCuna celeste menguada y fría
Without more cover than a poemSin más rebozo que una poesía
Who wants to see you empty?¿Quién quiere verte vacía
For seven nights in a row?Por siete noches seguidas?

Where do my faults nest?¿Dónde se anidan las culpas mías?
I know that my childhood in your cold skirtSé que mi infancia en tu falda fría
My angry tunicMi túnica enfurecida
You already know about another fallYa sabe de otra caída

Branch of LightGajo de Luz
Seven nights you will beSiete noches serás
Branch of LightGajo de Luz
You'll turn off soonYa te apagarás

Devil's claw, why did you scratch?Uña del diablo, ¿por qué arañaste?
Soul of the child who did not escapeAlma del niño que no escapaste
What name does the embroidery have?¿Qué nombre luce el bordado
From an unfortunate point?De punto desventurado?

Light branchGajo de luz
Don't laugh at meNo te rías de mi
Light branchGajo de luz
From my lifeDe mi vida

Why do you swing so much?¿Porqué te hamacas tanto?
Where will the charm be?¿Dónde estará el encanto?
Where are you hanging like that?¿De dónde cuelgas así?

A ray of light, you turn offGajo de luz te apagas
A ray of light is running outGajo de luz te acabas
Maybe you won't come back for meQuizá no vuelvas por mi

Why do you make fun of it so much?¿Porqué te burlas tanto
In my nights of fear?En mis noches de espanto?
Why are you laughing at me?¿Porqué te ríes de mi?

You lose a ray of lightGajo de luz te pierdes
And there will be no one who remembersY no habrá quién se acuerde
Whose was I, whose was I?De quién fui yo, de quién fui
