Huella Sin Huella

Footprint Without a Trace

Huella Sin Huella

The thunderous bullsLos toros de los truenos
Come roaring,Vienen bramando,
Pushing dark cloudsPechando nubarrones
Over the fields.Negrando el campo.
The wind is moaningEl viento va tristeando
With its sigh,Con su gemido,
The saddest of the sadLo triste de lo triste
Is not being with you.No estar contigo.

With silver vipersCon víboras de plata
The flashes strike,Los refucilos,
Tearing open belliesVienen rasgando panzas
In a rage.Enfurecidos.
Fine fingers of waterFinos dedos de agua
Are trembling,Van tremolando,
The song of the rainLa canción de la lluvia
Over my ranch.Sobre mi rancho.

To the footprint, to the footprint,A la huella, a la huella,
I leave crying,Me voy llorando,
Like through the cracksComo por las ranuras
The puddles weep.Lloran los charcos.

Deep inside I gallopAlma adentro galopo
In the darknessMuy en tinieblas
Shoveling the shadowsPaleteando las sombras
Of my conscience.De la conciencia.
I've been left pensiveHe quedao pensativo
Philosophizing,Filosofando,
My eyes wide openLos ojos asombrados
That the puddles reveal.Que abren los charcos.

Unyielding clapperBadajo implacable
A dripping faucet,Una gotera,
With the sound of little frogsCon ruido de ranitas
Ringing in my ears.Me cencerrea.
The cricket in the bulbEl grillo en la bombilla
Hoarse and tiredEnronquecido
Singing of solitudeDe cantar soledades
Dreams with me.Sueña conmigo.

To the footprint, to the footprintA la huella, a la huella
Alone without a traceSolo sin huella
I'm all alone on the ranchEstoy solo en el rancho
Footprint without her.Huella sin ella.
