Amor Prohibido

Forbidden Love

Amor Prohibido

The stranger arrived with very different dreamsEl extraño llegó con sueños muy distintos
But he saw herPero la vio
As only a mirage can be seenComo solo puede verse un espejismo
Inside the heartDentro del corazón

He guessed a destiny in her faceÉl adivino un destino en su cara
She sensed his crossElla intuyó su cruz
It was mixing Heaven's thingsFue mezclar lo del Cielo
With life at ground levelCon la vida a ras del suelo
And understandingY comprender
That lost EdensQue los edenes perdidos
Are always foundSiempre se encuentran
By chancePor casualidad

SuddenlyDe repente
Facing each otherLa una frente al otro
Not knowing what they feelSin saber lo que sienten
Paradise without a serpentParaíso sin serpiente
Don't look for it, there are noneNo lo busques que no quedan
There are no forbidden fruitsNo existen frutas prohibidas
Only closed mouthsSi no bocas que se cierran

And that love, so sacredY ese amor, tan sagrado
So silent, so secretTan callado, tan secreto
So toldTan contado
So for two and for no oneTan de dos y tan de nadie
So pure and sinfulTan puro y de pecado
So furtive and whisperedTan furtivo y murmurado
So unforgiven by GodTan sin perdón de Dios

And that story without spotlightsY esa historia sin focos
Or witnessesNi testigos
So of enemy dreamsTan de sueños enemigos
So possible, and so chimeraTan posible, y tan quimera
So of nights without bordersTan de noches sin fronteras
Of innocence and penanceDe inocencia y penitencia
Of loving each other just becauseDe un quererse porque sí

Two lonersDos solitarios
Giving the worldDándole al mundo
Their reason for beingSu sin razón de ser

And that eagernessY ese afán
To be togetherDe estar juntos
Against everythingContra todo
Without hell and without treasureSin infierno y sin tesoro
Without rewards without punishmentsSin premios sin castigos
Without what will I be with youSin que seré contigo

With a hidden gold ringCon un anillo de oro
In a drawerEscondido en un cajón
And that love so free, and captivatedY ese amor tan libre, y cautivado
So of light and shadowyTan de luz y penumbroso
So clean and dangerousTan limpio y peligroso
That doesn't stay silent or lieQue no se calla ni miente
So of what will people sayTan de qué dirá la gente
Tree of good and evilÁrbol del bien y el mal
Two lonersDos solitarios
Giving the worldDándole al mundo
Their reason for beingSu sin razón de ser
