Текст и перевод песни Violeta Parra - Paloma ausente (Remastered)

Paloma ausente (Remastered)

Cinco noches que lloro por los caminos
Cinco cartas escritas se llevó el viento
Cinco pañuelos negros son los testigos
De los cinco dolores que llevo adentro
Paloma ausente, blanca paloma, rosa naciente

Paso lunas enteras mirando al cielo
Con un solo deseo en el pensamiento
Que no descienda herida mi palomita
La que viene fundida a los elementos
Paloma ausente, blanca paloma, rosa naciente

Dice un papel escrito con tinta verde
Que teniendo paciencia todo se alcanza
Una que bien la tuvo salió bailando
De su jardín al arco de las alianzas
Paloma ausente, blanca paloma, rosa naciente

Una jaula del aire viene bajando
Con todos sus barrotes de calamina
Todos los pajarillos vienen trinando
Sin embargo distingo a mi golondrina
Paloma ausente, blanca paloma, rosa naciente

Voy a ponerme un traje de mariposa
Mañana, cuando llegue mi palomita
En los dedos banderas de tres colores
Y en las pestañas miles de candelillas
Paloma ausente, blanca paloma, rosa naciente

Absent Dove (Remastered)

For five nights, I've wept along the roads
Five letters written, carried away by the wind
Five black handkerchiefs are my witnesses
Of the five sorrows I carry within me
Absent dove, white dove, blossoming rose

I spend moons gazing up at the sky
With but one wish in my mind
That my little dove won't alight wounded
She who is fused to the elements
Absent dove, white dove, blossoming rose

Says a sheet, written in green ink
That with patience, all can be achieved
One who did have such patience, went off dancing
From her garden to the arch of alliances
Absent dove, white dove, blossoming rose

A cage of air descends
With all its bars of corrugated steel
All the little birds come singing
Yet among them, I can distinguish my swallow
Absent dove, white dove, blossoming rose

I will don a butterfly's costume
Tomorrow, when my little dove arrives
With flags of three colors in my fingers
And thousands of candles in my eyelashes
Absent dove, white dove, blossoming rose
