Paroles et traduction Manzanita - Paloma Blanca

Paloma Blanca

Soy paloma blanca
Que busca árbol sin trampas
Para cerrar mis alas
Y descansar en él.
Pero tu tienes raices
En ti ya han hecho nido

Eres mujer que ha conocido
Lo que yo nunca ha sentido
No es que me importe tu edad
Ni que te hayan querido
Para personarme en tus ramas
No importa que hayas vivido.

Tu eres árbol frondoso
Con ramas dulces y tiernas
Con hojas que dan cariño
Halago y bienestar.
Ni lo que la gente hable
Tampoco es ese el motivo
Lo que pasa es que yo tengo miedo
Miedo a lo desconocido

Acortar mi libertad
Entregando mi cariño
Y que luego tu te marches
Rompiendo mi corazón herido

White Dove

I am a white dove,
Searching for a tree without traps
To close my wings,
And rest within it.
But you have roots,
And others have built within you a nest.

You are a woman who has known
What I have never felt.
It is not that your age matters to me,
Or that others have loved you well,
For I may rest within your branches.
It matters not that you have lived.

You are a leafy tree
With sweet and tender branches,
With leaves that offer love,
Warmth, and well-being.
Nor do I care what people say,
This is not the reason.
The truth is, I am afraid,
Afraid of the unknown,

To give up my freedom,
Surrendering my love,
And that you will then leave,
Breaking my already wounded heart.
