Olivia

Olivia despertó por la mañana
Como suele hacer la gente
Más o menos con el sol

Era un sábado más en su ventana
Era una invitación para la suerte
Era una semejanza del amor
Con que trenzaba hijas y calor
Con la soledad
Era la soledad
Salía el sol

Olivia en su península poblada
Por la lentitud del día
Por el tiempo sin hacer

Sobre su condición iba clavada
Como una diosa de la luna fría
Que las estrellas quiere conocer
Y dio una piedra errante de comer
Con su soledad
Era la soledad
Y vio llover

Olivia no sabía que la noche
Tiende puentes de aguacero
Para llegar a su umbral

Olivia no sabía que hay un coche
Y un precipicio al borde del cochero
Y oyó decir que un astro hinchaba el mar
Y salió de su isla a caminar
Sin la soledad
Era la soledad
Oyó cantar

Olivia

Olivia woke up in the morning
As people usually do
More or less with the sun

It was just another Saturday at her window
It was an invitation for luck
It was a resemblance of love
With which she braided daughters and warmth
With loneliness
It was loneliness
The sun was rising

Olivia in her populated peninsula
By the slowness of the day
By the time not spent

Her condition was nailed
Like a goddess of the cold moon
Who wants to meet the stars
And gave a wandering stone to eat
With her loneliness
It was loneliness
And she saw the rain

Olivia didn't know that the night
Builds bridges of downpour
To reach her threshold

Olivia didn't know there's a car
And a cliff at the edge of the coachman
And heard that a star was swelling the sea
And she left her island to walk
Without loneliness
It was loneliness
She heard singing
