Si tù existieras y escucharas lo que pienso
If you existed and listened to what I think
Son las palabras que retiene el pensamiento
They are the words that the thought retains
Aquellas que un dia maldito no salieron
Those that one cursed day did not come out
Y que hoy las digo pero se las lleva el viento
And that today I say them but the wind takes them away
Tu alma desnuda se ha escondido allà en lo alto
Your naked soul has hidden up there
De ese infinito cielo azul que ya no alcanzo
Of that infinite blue sky that I no longer reach
Que con tristeza de aquì abajo yo reclamo
that with sadness from here below I claim
Con la esperanza que puedas oir mi canto
Hoping you can hear my singing
Y hoy lo siento
and today I'm sorry
No sabes cuànto
You do not know how much
Que nunca supe contenerte en tu quebranto
That I never knew how to contain you in your brokenness
Tu imagen se ha quedado nìtida en mi mente
Your image has remained clear in my mind
Gracias a ella logro consolar mi llanto
Thanks to her I manage to comfort my crying
Y hoy lo siento, Cuànto lo siento
And today I'm sorry, how sorry I am
Que no te pude contener en tu lamento
That I could not contain you in your regret
Con ese amor y el deseo de quererte
With that love and the desire to love you
Cuando tratabas de luchar por ser perfecto
When you tried to fight to be perfect
Si tù existieras y escucharas lo que pienso
If you existed and listened to what I think
Son las palabras que retiene el pensamiento
They are the words that the thought retains
Aquellas que un dia maldito no salieron
Those that one cursed day did not come out
Y que hoy las digo pero se las lleva el viento
And that today I say them but the wind takes them away
Y en tu sonrisa que hoy recuerdo està la fuerza
And in your smile that I remember today is the strength
De ese valor de la moral que me alimenta
Of that value of morality that feeds me
De ese coraje con que un dia decidiste
Of that courage with which one day you decided
Y sin pensarlo para siempre te nos fuiste
And without thinking about it, you left us forever
Y hoy lo siento, Sì que lo siento
And today I'm sorry, yes I'm sorry
Que te hayas ido sin poder verte por dentro
That you have left without being able to see you inside
Has hecho polvo la esperanza de abrazarte
You have shattered the hope of hugging you
Y hacerle ver al mundo entero tu talento

Y hoy lo siento No sabes cuànto

Hoy lo siento, cuanto lo siento

Que las palabras se las ha llevado el viento

Que las palabras se las ha llevado el viento

Llevado el viento
