The Grand Inquisitor I: Karamazov Baseness

Aunque no creyera en la vidaEven if I did not believe in life
Si perdiera mi fe en el orden de las cosasIf I lost my faith in the order of things
Estuviera convencido, de hecho, de que todo es un caos desordenado, maldito y diabólicoWere convinced, in fact, that everything is a disorderly, damnable, and devil-ridden chaos
Si me golpeara cada horror del desencanto humanoIf I were struck by every horror of man's disillusionment
Aún así querría vivirStill I would want to live
Y, habiendo probado una vez la copaAnd, having once tasted the cup
No me apartaría de ellaI would not turn away from it
Hasta haberla vaciadoUntil I had drained it
Estás tratando de salvarmeYou are trying to save me
Estás tratando de salvarmeYou are trying to save me
Pero, quizás, no estoy perdidoBut, perhaps, I am not lost

Si me golpeara cada horror del desencanto humanoIf I were struck by every horror of man's disillusionment

No me apartaría de ellaI would not turn away from it

¿Un padre indigno e indiferente tiene derecho al amor y respeto de sus hijos?Is an unworthy, uncaring father still entitled to the love and respect of his sons?

Estás tratando de salvarmeYou are trying to save me
Pero, quizás, no estoy perdidoBut, perhaps, I am not lost
Estás tratando de salvarmeYou are trying to save me
Pero, quizás, no estoyBut, perhaps, I am not
PerdidoLost
