Текст и перевод песни Jorge Falcon - El Amor Desolado

El Amor Desolado

Yo puse el esfuerzo y ella la desgana
Yo, el hondo silencio, y ella la palabra
Yo, senda y camino, y ella, la distancia
Yo puse los ojos, y ella, la mirada

Quise entre mis manos retener el agua
Y, sobre la arena, levanté mi casa
Me quedé sin manos. Me quedé sin casa
Fui raíz oscura, y ella, tronco y rama

Para que la cuenta del amor sumara
Ella puso el cuerpo; yo, el cuerpo y el alma
Era toda viento; yo, todo montaña
Yo, pura resina, y ella, pura llama

Una noche oscura, se fue de mi casa
Cegaron mis ojos, para no mirarla
Para no seguirla, cerré las ventanas
Clausuré las puertas, para no llamarla

Puse rosas negras sobre nuestra cama
Sobre su memoria, puse rosas blancas
Y, a la luz difusa de la madrugada
Me quité la vida, para no matarla

Yo lo puse todo:
Vida, cuerpo y alma;
Ella, Dios lo sabe,
Nunca puso nada
Nada, nada, nada

Desolate Love

I made the effort, but she disdained
I, the deep silence, she, the word
I, the path and the way, she, the distance
I put in my eyes, and she, her gaze

I wanted to hold the water in my hands
And, on the sand, I built my house
I was left without hands. I was left without a house
I was the dark root, and she, the trunk and branch

So that the account of love would add up
She put the body; I, the body and the soul
She was all wind; I, all mountain
I, pure resin, and she, pure flame

One dark night, she left my house
They blinded my eyes, so I wouldn't look at her
So I wouldn't follow her, I closed the windows
I locked the doors, so I wouldn't call her

I put black roses on our bed
On her memory, I put white roses
And, in the dim light of dawn
I took my own life, so I wouldn't kill her

I put everything in:
Life, body and soul;
She, God knows,
Never put anything
Nothing, nothing, nothing
