El rescate - 2018 Remaster

Desde la plaza de armas de un lugar cualquiera,
te escribo una carta para que tú sepas
lo que ya sabías, aunque no lo dijeras.
Espero que llegue a tus manos y, que no la devuelvas.
Que pagues el rescate que abajo te indico.
Yo tampoco me explico, por qué no acudí antes a ti.
Pero nadie puede salvarme, nadie sabe lo que sabes,
y tampoco entregarían lo que vale mi rescate.
No hay dinero, ni castillos, ni avales, ni talonarios,
no hay en este mundo, -aunque parezca absurdo-,
ni en planetas por descubrir, lo que aquí te pido.
Y no te obligo a nada que no quieras.
Las fuerzas me fallan, mis piernas no responden;
te conocen, pero no llegan a ti.
Decidí por eso mismo, un mecanismo de defensa.
Y presa como está mi alma, con la calma suficiente,
ser más fuerte, y enfrentarme cuanto antes a la verdad,
sin dudar un segundo, lo asumo, sólo tú puedes pagar el rescate.
Devuélveme el amor que me arrebataste,
o entrégaselo, lo mismo me da, al abajo firmante;
pues no hay en este mundo, aunque parezca absurdo,
ni en planetas por descubrir, lo que aquí te pido.
Y no te obligo a nada que no quieras.
Las fuerzas me fallan, mis piernas no responden;
te conocen, pero no llegan a ti.
Y no te obligo a nada que no quieras.
Las fuerzas me fallan, mis piernas no responden;
te conocen, pero no llegan a ti.

Rescue (2018 Remaster) - Translation

From any random city's main square,
I write you a letter so you know
what you already know, though you won't say it.
I hope it reaches your hands, and that you don't return it.
That you pay the ransom I ask of you below.
I don't explain it to myself either, why I didn't come to you earlier.
But no one can save me, no one knows what you know,
and they wouldn't give you what my ransom is worth.
There's no money, no castles, no guarantees, no checkbooks,
there's nothing in this world - though it may seem absurd -,
nor in planets yet to be discovered, that I ask of you here.
And I don't force you to do anything you don't want to.
My strength fails me, my legs don't respond;
they know you, but they don't reach you.
That's why I decided on a defense mechanism.
And with my soul held captive, calmly enough,
to be stronger and face the truth sooner
without a second's doubt, I assume, only you can pay the ransom.
Give me back the love that you took from me,
or give it to the undersigned, it's all the same to me;
for there's nothing in this world - though it may seem absurd -,
nor in planets yet to be discovered, that I ask of you here.
And I don't force you to do anything you don't want to.
My strength fails me, my legs don't respond;
they know you, but they don't reach you.
And I don't force you to do anything you don't want to.
My strength fails me, my legs don't respond;
they know you, but they don't reach you.
