La Nave Del Olvido
Chavela Vargas
The Ship of Oblivion
Wait.
Even the ship of oblivion has not departed yet.
Let's not condemn what we've lived to shipwreck.
For our yesterday, for our love, I ask you.
Wait.
I still have springs in my hands
To shower you with all new caresses
That would die in my hands if you left.
Wait a little, a little more,
To take my happiness with you.
Wait a little, a little more.
I would die if you leave.
Wait a little, a little more,
To take my happiness with you.
Wait a little, a little more.
I would die if you leave.
Wait.
I still have joys to give you.
I have a thousand nights of love to give you.
I give you my life in exchange for you staying.
Wait.
My tomorrow won't understand if you leave,
And I even admit that you lied to me about your love.
I would adore you even if you didn't love me.
Wait a little, a little more,
To take my happiness with you.
Wait a little, a little more.
I would die if you leave.
Wait a little, a little more,
To take my happiness with you.
Wait a little, a little more.
I would die if you leave.
