Anhelo

Longing

Anhelo

For loving you, woman, with such longingPor quererte mujer, con tanto anhelo
In my eagerness to adore you, like GodEn mi afán de adorarte, como a Dios
Now I am unhappy, and the same skyAhora soy infeliz, y el mismo cielo
Put a world of forgetfulness between usPuso un mundo de olvido entre los dos

I cry, I kneel, I sing and prayLloro, me arrodillo, canto y rezo
Before Christ, who has to judge meAnte el Cristo, que me tiene que juzgar
To see if through all of thatPara ver, si por medio de todo eso
He sends an angel to come and console meManda un ángel que me venga a consolar

Even if they pierce me with a stone chestAunque el pecho de piedra me ataladren
This terrible, so atrocious painEsta pena terrible, tan atroz
I will have to love you, like my motherYo te habré de querer, como a mi madre
And at the same time, adore you like GodY a la vez, adorarte como a Dios

I cry, I kneel, I sing and prayLloro, me arrodillo, canto y rezo
Before Christ, who has to judge meAnte el Cristo, que me tiene que juzgar
To see if through all of thatPara ver, si por medio de todo eso
He sends an angel to come and console meManda un ángel que me venga a consolar
