Un millón de sueños

Cecilia Cecilia

A million dreams

Now I live at the expense
Of a million dead
(A million graves,
A million specters)

Now I live at the expense
Of a million bodies
(A million shadows,
A million dreams)

How many graves! There is no land
To dig in it,
To leave so many men unnamed.
How many names in history
Own the glories?
How many men cost the victories?

Now I live at the expense
Of a million dead
(A million graves,
A million specters)

Now I live at the expense
Of a million bodies
(A million shadows,
A million dreams)

How much blood has been lost!
How much honor wounded
In these cruel wars without laurels!
How much hunger has been endured!
Hunger on every side,
Hunger for peace, hunger for an honest man.

Now I live at the expense
Of a million dead
(A million graves,
A million specters)

Now I live at the expense
Of a million bodies
(A million shadows,
A million dreams)

How many tears shed
To wash the wounds!
To forget the dead with time.
How many eyes, how many faces!
How many lives cut short!
How many buried illusions!

Now I live at the expense
Of a million dead
(A million graves,
A million specters)

Now I live at the expense
Of a million bodies
(A million shadows,
A million dreams)
