Paroles et traduction Malena Muyala - Velitas y Santos

Velitas y Santos

Tres palomitas tiesas en la pared
Siempre apuntando al cielo aunque no lo ven.
Una velita, un santo y tanto pedir
Cuando piensa en quedarse comienza a huir.
Nunca llegó el camino a sentir piedad
De sus ojos cansados de no llorar.
El horizonte un día la vio pasar
Ella dijo, ya vuelvo y no volvió más.
Pasó la vida, sin avisar
La vio dormida, no quiso entrar.
En una foto vieja te veo reír
Con esa muñequita eras feliz.
Tus ojos me preguntan tus labios no
Acaricié tus manos no hubo adiós.
Yo seguiré contando para elegir
La estrella más bonita que prometí
Alumbrará los días cuando no estés
Tu voz será mi guía, yo cantaré.
Pasó la vida sin avisar
La vio dormida, no quiso entrar.

Candles and Saints

Three straight doves on the wall
Always pointing to the sky even though they don't see it.
A candle, a saint, and so much praying
When she thinks of staying, she starts to flee.
The path never came to feel pity
For her tired eyes that don't cry.
One day, the horizon saw her pass by
She said, I'll be right back, but she never came.
Life went by without warning
She saw her sleeping, didn't want to go in.
In an old photo, I see you smiling
With that little doll, you were happy.
Your eyes ask me, your lips don't
I caressed your hands, there was no goodbye.
I will keep counting to choose
The prettiest star that I promised
It will light the days when you're not here
Your voice will be my guide, I will sing.
Life went by without warning
She saw her sleeping, didn't want to go in.
