A Ti Mujer
José Luis Perales
To You Woman
To you, woman,
no matter who you are,
nor where you come from,
nor why you leave.
Woman,
I would like to write you a love letter.
Because you are the center of the universe
and I believe in you.
Woman,
who touches the night and fills it with light,
who has problems, longings, and sorrows
and I believe in you.
To you,
who have something to say
and are silent.
To you,
who were denied love
and are tired.
To you,
who are starting to live.
And to you,
who have nothing left.
To you,
I want to write my letter today.
To you, woman,
who crosses the rain,
seeking shelter
in this workshop.
Woman,
I would like to write you a love letter,
I would like to tell you looking into your eyes,
that I believe in you.
Woman,
who dreams of the flight of freedom,
who flaps her wings seeking the sky;
and I believe in you.
To you,
who have something to say
and are silent.
To you,
who were denied love
and are tired.
To you,
who are starting to live.
And to you,
who have nothing left.
To you,
I want to write my letter today.
