La Barca / Amor
The Boat / Love
Dicen que la distancia es el olvido
They say that distance brings forgetfulness
Pero yo no concibo esa razón
But I cannot conceive of such a reason
Porque yo seguiré siendo el cautivo
Because I will remain the captive
De los caprichos de tu corazón
Of the whims of your heart
Supiste esclarecer mis pensamientos
You were able to clarify my thoughts
Me diste la verdad que yo soñé
You gave me the truth that I dreamed of
Auyentaste de mi los sufrimientos
You banished my suffering
En la primera noche que te amé
On the first night that I loved you
Hoy mi playa se viste de amargura
Today my beach is filled with bitterness
Porque tu barca tiene que partir
Because your boat must leave
A cruzar otros mares de locura
To cross other seas of madness
Cuida que no naufrague tu vivir
Be careful not to let your life capsize
Cuando la luz del sol se esté apagando
When the light of the sun is fading
Y te sientas cansada de vagar
And you feel tired of wandering
Piensa que yo por ti estaré esperando
Think that I will be waiting for you
Hasta que tu decidas regresar
Until you decide to return
Amor, amor, amor
Love, love, love
Nació de ti, nació de
Was born from you, was born from me
De la esperanza
From hope
Amor, amor, amor
Love, love, love
Nació de Dios para los dos
Was born from God for us two
Nació del alma

Sentir que tus besos se anidaron en
To feel that your kisses have nested in me
Igual que palomas mensajeras de luz
Like carrier pigeons of light
Saber que mis besos se quedaron en ti
To know that my kisses have stayed with you
Haciendo en tus labios la señal de la cruz
Making the sign of the cross on your lips
Amor, amor, amor
Love, love, love
Nació de tí, nació de
Was born from you, was born from me
De la esperanza
From hope
Amor, amor, amor
