Lyrics and translation Nelly Omar - Parece mentira

Parece mentira

Yo soy como siempre, yo nunca cambié,
Mi ropa es la de antes, mi vida también.
Por eso, de pronto, me cuesta creer
Que seas la misma, la misma de ayer.

Parece mentira que todo de un golpe se pueda romper,
Parece mentira que el sueño más puro nos quiebre la fe,
Te miro y no sé, me cuesta creer,
Que seas la misma que quise una vez.

Son tus ojos, dos luceros,
Dos abrojos hechiceros,
Dos abrojos de luz que se queman, en la noche de mi corazón.

Son mis penas cien tormentas.
Son mis penas cien condenas,
Cien condenas de horror que
Encadenan, mi vida perdida detrás de tu amor.

Tu calle es la misma, tu esquina también,
Las noches del barrio, las mismas de ayer.
La luna es la misma que vimos los dos,
Colgada en la punta de aquel callejón.

Si todo es como antes, si nada ha cambiado, si todo es igual,
Parece mentira que sólo tu vida pudiera cambiar.
Te miro y no sé, me cuesta creer, que seas la misma que quise una vez.

It Seems Like a Lie

I am as I always was, I never changed,
My clothes are the same, my life too.
That's why, suddenly, I find it hard to believe
That you are the same, the same as yesterday.

It seems like a lie that everything can break at once,
It seems like a lie that the purest dream can break our faith,
I look at you and I don't know, I find it hard to believe,
That you are the same one I loved once.

Your eyes, two stars,
Two bewitching brambles,
Two brambles of light that burn in the night of my heart.

My sorrows are a hundred storms.
My sorrows are a hundred sentences,
A hundred sentences of horror that
Imprison my lost life behind your love.

Your street is the same, your corner too,
The neighborhood nights are the same as yesterday.
The moon is the same that we both saw,
Hanging on the edge of that alley.

If everything is as before, if nothing has changed, if everything is the same,
It seems like a lie that only your life could change.
I look at you and I don't know, I find it hard to believe that you are the same one I loved once.
