Lyrics and translation Rubén Blades - Vino Añejo

Vino Añejo

No pasaras como las otras
Que mi espera visitaron
Se detuvieron un instante
Y siguieron su camino
Dejando solo como huella
Memorias de dolor
Al usar mi corazón
Como un punto de partida
Sin pensar en que mi amor
Corre largo y sin mentiras.

Mi ayer está lleno de historia
Escrita en tantas despedidas
Que el tiempo adquiere hasta la forma
De mil tristezas repetidas
Apareciste entre mi sombra
Cual estrella en firmamento
Y me has hecho sentir dentro
Que se cierran las heridas
Que causaron mis intentos
Por creer en otras vidas.

Quédate en mi
Te ofrezco un alma
En decepciones concebida
Que con tu amor has transformado
En una casa de alegría
Amada quédate conmigo
Que esta vez sea diferente
Ya no quiero continuar
Por las otras amargado
Jamás merece perdón
El que nunca a perdonado.

Noooooo pasaras he madurado
En tu cuerpo y tus sentidos
Tú, pedernal en mi tiniebla
Yo, vino añejo te he ofrecido
Te pido quédate conmigo
En esta curva del camino
Ya no me duele el pasado
Ni lamento lo perdido
No me importa hacerme viejo
Si me hago viejo contigo.

Tú pasaras
Por siempre te quedaras
Conmigo.

Aged Wine

You won’t pass like the others
Who have visited my waiting
They paused for a moment
And continued their way
Leaving only footprints
Memories of pain
When using my heart
As a starting point
Without thinking that my love
Runs long and without lies.

My yesterday is full of stories
Written in so many farewells
That time takes on the form
Of a thousand repeated sorrows
You appeared among my shadows
Like a star in the sky
And you have made me feel inside
That the wounds are closing
That my attempts caused
To believe in other lives.

Stay with me
I offer you a soul
Conceived in disappointment
That with your love you have transformed
Into a house of joy
My love, stay with me
May this time be different
I no longer want to continue
Embittered by the others
The one who has never forgiven
Never deserves forgiveness.

Noooooo you won’t pass by, I have matured
In your body and your senses
You, flint in my darkness
I, aged wine have offered you
I ask that you stay with me
On this curve of the road
The past no longer hurts me
Nor do I regret what is lost
I don’t care if I grow old
If I grow old with you.

You will pass
You will always stay with me.
With me.
