Antes De Amar De Nuevo
Inti-Illimani
Before Loving Again
Before loving again, cleanse your heart
With water and true ashes:
So the newcomer will know you have forgotten
The other who filled your adventurous life.
Untie the ropes before loving again
That hold you back in a strange horizon:
You ignore the worth of conquering a minute
When proudly you have slept a thousand years.
Love is given standing in a confusing and torn world
That barely reflects something much more beautiful:
To reach it, just clean your gaze
And without any doubt, you will know what that is.
Before loving again, shed a few silent tears,
Do as the rain does that cleans your window,
The sun is not far from your vain soul,
Just that to see it, you have to open the morning
