Volverán Las Oscuras Golondrinas

The Dark Swallows Will Return

Volverán Las Oscuras Golondrinas

The dark swallows will returnVolverán las oscuras golondrinas
To hang their nests on your balconyEn tu balcón sus nidos a colgar
And once again, with their wings on your windows,Y otra vez, con el ala en tus cristales,
Playfully they will call.Jugando llamarán.
But those that refrained from flyingPero aquellas que el vuelo refrenaban
To contemplate beauty and happiness,La hermosura y la dicha contemplar,
Those that learned our names,Aquellas que aprendieron nuestros nombres,
Those will not return.Esas no volverán.
Those will not return.Esas no volverán.
Those will not return.Esas no volverán.
Those will not return.Esas no volverán .

The dense honeysuckles will returnVolverán las tupidas madreselvas
To climb the walls of your gardenDe tu jardín, las tapias a escalar
And once again in the evening, even more beautiful,Y otra vez a la tarde aún más hermosas
Their flowers will bloom.Sus flores abrirán.
But those filled with dewPero aquellas cuajadas de rocío
Whose drops we watched trembleCuyas gotas mirábamos temblar
And fall like tears of the day,Y caer como lágrimas del día
Those will not return.Esas no volverán.
Those will not return.Esas no volverán.
Those will not return.Esas no volverán.
Those will not return.Esas no volverán .

Those will not returnEsas no volverán
Those will not returnEsas no volverán
Those will notEsas no
The burning words of loveVolverán del amor en tus oídos
Will not sound in your ears again.Las palabras ardientes a sonar.
Your heart from its deep sleepTu corazón de su profundo sueño
Might awaken.Tal vez despertará.
But silent and absorbed and on your knees,Pero muda y absorta y de rodillas,
As one adores God before His altar,Como se adora a dios ante su altar,
As I have loved you, disillusion yourself,Como yo te he querido desengáñate,
They will not love you like that.Así no te querrán.
They will not love you like that.Así no te querrán.
They will not love you like that.Así no te querrán.
They will not love you like that.Así no te querrán.
Those will not return.Esas no volverán.
Those will not return.Esas no volverán.
Those will not return.Esas no volverán.
