Canciòn Para Una Mentira

Song for a Lie

Canciòn Para Una Mentira

Today I remember you, my love,Hoy te recuerdo mi amor,
What a shame, now without affectionQue lastima, ya sin cariño
Maybe a silent grudge flows through my veinsTal vez un rencor sordo transite por mis venas
It's just that my optimistic life crossed paths with the shadow of a lieEs que mi vida optimista se cruzo a la sombra de una mentira
I, I adored you, my guitar sang to you and my voice faded in your hair,Yo, yo te adoraba, mi guitarra te cantaba y mi voz se apagaba en tus cabellos,
How beautiful, but how beautiful it all wasQue hermoso, pero que hermoso que fue todo aquello

Love, today I'm leaving far from youAmor hoy me voy lejos de ti
In my endless bitternessEn mi amargura sin fin
I want to sing to you as I go.Quiero cantarte al partir.

I don't know if my song will reachNo se si mi canto llegara
The rosebush of your loveHasta el rosal de tu amor
But it will linger in me.Pero en mi perdurara.

Maybe you'll give yourself to another loveTal vez a otro amor te entregaras
But forgetting mePero olvidarte de mí
You will never achieveNo podras lograr jamas

If ever on your path the wine of pain makes you cry,Si alguna vez en tu senda el vino del dolor te hace llorar,
Pray to God that they didn't lie to youRuega a dios que no te hayan mentido

That your eyes don't wither with the astonished tears of seeing reality,Que no se marchiten tus ojos con el llanto asombrado de ver la realidad,
That cruel reality that closed my heart,Esa realidad cruel que cerro mi corazon,
That hurt me so much, that caused me so much pain.Que me hizo tanto daño, que me dio tanto dolor.

I don't love you anymore,Ya no te quiero,
But how sad it is to feel empty,Pero que triste es sentirse vacio,
Without strength and without desire to love,Sin fuerzas y sin ganas de amar,
How sad it is to feel wounded just for having endured the pain,Que triste es sentirse herido por el solo hecho de haber aguantado de pie el dolor,
The pain of a lie.El dolor de una mentira.

Love, I don't want to see you cryAmor no quiero verte llorar
For in your tears alreadyPues en tus lagrimas ya
I will never be able to believe again.No podre creer jamas.

I know, that you will remember meYo se, que de mi te acordaras
I know you will regretSe que te arrepentiras
Hiding the truth from me.De ocultarme la verdad.

Goodbye, I could have kissed you as I left,Adios, pude besarte al partir,
I know your mouth lies to me,Se que me miente tu boca,
I'd rather die.Antes prefiero morir.
