Yo Solo Quería Escribir Una Canción De Amor Lyrics English Translation by Zahara
You can forget about sadness
From this terrace, waiting for the deer,
Listening to the bells,
The engine of some tractor,
The bumblebees buzzing in the distance.
A corner in the universe,
Protected by turquoise walls,
Emerges between swamps and trees,
And when I touch their bark, I shout:
You’re mine,
Even though I’m not yet,
It feels like those houses from my childhood,
Where there was beauty.
Here the animals never stop mating,
The color of the decor shines brighter than before,
The strength of the winds
Threatens to carry me away.
Let Madrid sink,
Let it burn in hell,
I’ll stay here with you,
In this end of the world with you.
Let Madrid die,
Let it burn in hell,
I’ll stay here with you,
In this end of the world with you.
I hear their noises at night,
And I feel that this house is speaking to me,
That it has hands, lungs,
I hear every one of its words,
The trembling of its hearts,
I feel its breath in the tower,
That its mouth swallows me,
It can do whatever it wants to me.
Feed me like your wild cats,
Make me grow like one of your poppies,
Hide me behind the cypress trees,
I can be your most broken chair,
My body fits perfectly in the gap,
What’s behind the stairs,
Now I belong to your walls,
Now I’m one of your cracks.
Let Madrid sink,
Let it burn in hell,
I’ll stay here with you,
In this end of the world with you.
Let Madrid die,
Let it burn in hell,
I’ll stay here with you,
In this end of the world with you.
