Текст и перевод песни Carlos Varela - Habaname

Habaname

Mirando un album de fotos
De la vieja capital,
Desde los tiempo remotos
De La Habana colonial.

Mi padre dejó su tierra
Y cuando al Morro llegó,
La Habana le abrió sus piernas
Y por eso nací yo.

Habana, Habana
Si bastara una canción
Para devolverte todo
Lo que el tiempo te quitó.
Habana, mi Habana
Si supieras el dolor
Que siento te canto
Y no entiendes que es amor.

Escuchando a Matamoros

Desde un lejano lugar
La Habana guarda un tesoro
Que es difícil olvidar.

Y los años van pasando
Y miramos con dolor,
Como se va derrumbando
Cada muro de ilusión.

Habana, Habana
Si bastara una canción
Para devolverte todo
Lo que el tiempo te quitó.
Habana, mi Habana
Si supieras el dolor
Que siento te canto
Y no entiendes que este llanto
Es por amor.

Habaname

Looking at a photo album
Of the old capital,
From the distant times
Of Colonial Havana.

My father left his land
And when he arrived at El Morro,
Havana opened her legs to him
And that's why I was born.

Havana, Havana
If only a song were enough
To give you back all
That time has taken from you.
Havana, my Havana
If you only knew the pain
That I feel when I sing to you
And you don't understand that it's love.

Listening to Matamoros

From a distant place
Havana holds a treasure
That's hard to forget.

And the years go by
And we watch with sorrow,
As each wall of illusion
Crumbles down.

Havana, Havana
If only a song were enough
To give you back all
That time has taken from you.
Havana, my Havana
If you only knew the pain
That I feel when I sing to you
And you don't understand
That this tear is for love.
