Destellos
Julio Sosa
Glimmers
To drown deep sorrows that I have
That kill me and don't go away
I raise trembling in my hands
This glass of blonde champagne
I invite you to drink with me
That by drinking they will forget
The glimmers of lost loves
That usually cloud the eyes with tears
I have known how to drink at other times
From the source of her red lips
And in the light of her languid eyes
Many nights of love I got drunk
But, friends, she forgot me
And in the fine crystal of this glass
It seems to me that I see the mouth
That my mouth kissed a thousand times
In my soul there are glimmers
Of that love that will never go away
Because, no matter how hard I try, I can't
Quench this burning thirst
If tonight you see me drunk
I want to deceive myself
And that's why, friends, I invite you
Let's drink, I want to get dizzy with champagne
I have known how to drink at other times
From the source of her red lips
And the light of her languid eyes
Many nights of love I got drunk
But, friends, she forgot me
And in the fine crystal of this glass
It seems to me that I see the mouth
That my mouth kissed a thousand times
If tonight you see me drunk
I want to deceive myself
And that's why, friends, I invite you
Let's drink, I want to get dizzy with champagne
