Al Pie de Tu Reja
Guillermo Barbieri
At Your Gate
Tonight filled with stars,
While you lie there calm
Asleep, I've come to disturb you
My life, because I love you
With wild passion.
And I've come to tell you my longings
Because far from you I suffer so much,
That I can't find in my bitter
Heartbreak anything to ease
My great sorrow.
I don’t know what you’ve done to me,
My soul, that I can’t live
Without your love!
And I spend my days so sadly,
Sobbing with anguish and pain.
And I’m alone, suffering the sorrows
That condemn me
So much to suffer,
While I live thinking
That you love me and call me
With frenzy...
If only your eyes would look at me
With the same passion that I look at you,
You’d know that with every sigh
My love draws closer to you!
And if your soul could reach mine,
And saw me kneeling down,
Your eyes would give me, beloved,
The love that I learned to give you!
