Paroles et traduction Inti Illimani - Epilogo

Epilogo

Ya no tendrá sus dolencias
Porque se fue de este mundo
Sumergida en el profundo
Misterio de las ausencias.
De las doradas gavillas
Que en el rastrojo cayeran
Limpiando la sementera
Va recogiendo semilla.
Ayer sembró la simiente
Que hoy florece y fructifica.
Gracias a la vida que me ha dado tanto.
Me dio dos luceros que, cuando los abro,
Perfecto distingo lo negro del blanco,
Y en el alto cielo su fondo estrellado.
Gracias a la vida que me ha dado tanto.
Me ha dado el oído que, en todo su ancho,
Graba noche y día grillos y canarios;
Martillos, turbinas, ladridos, chubascos.
Gracias a la vida que me ha dado tanto.
Me ha dado la marcha de mis pies cansados;
Con ellos anduve ciudades y charcos,
Playas y desiertos, montañas y llanos.
Gracias a la vida que me ha dado tanto.
Me ha dado la risa y me ha dado el llanto.
Así yo distingo dicha de quebranto,
Los dos materiales que forman mi canto,
Y el canto de ustedes que es el mismo canto
Y el canto de todos, que es mi propio canto.

Epilogue

She will no longer have her ailments
Because she has left this world
Submerged in the deep
Mystery of absence.
From the golden sheaves
That fell in the stubble
Cleaning the seed
She is gathering seeds.
Yesterday she sowed the seed
That today blooms and bears fruit.
Thanks to life that has given me so much.
You gave me two eyes, that when I open them,
I perfectly distinguish black from white,
And in the high sky its starry background.
Thanks to life that has given me so much.
You gave me the listening that, in all its breadth,
Records crickets and canaries night and day;
Hammers, turbines, barking, downpours.
Thanks to life that has given me so much.
You gave me the movement of my tired feet;
With them I walked cities and puddles,
Beaches and deserts, mountains and plains.
Thanks to life that has given me so much.
You gave me laughter and you gave me tears.
Thus I distinguish joy from sorrow,
The two materials that form my song,
And the song of you that is the same song
And the song of all that is my own song.
