El Cuervo
Legado de Una Tragedia
The Raven
Trying to forget
That Leonor has died,
That she will never return.
I feel the cold of winter
On a fateful night
In my dreary solitude.
I heard a noise
At the window behind me.
Go away, long. How can a being like this
Was a raven, sneaked into my room.
Go away, long. How can a being like this
You call yourself?
Old raven, he only answered
"Nevermore".
And in shadows, cursed animal,
Only knew to repeat "nevermore".
Tomorrow you will leave
As other ravens do,
You will depart at dawn.
Miserable, he perched there,
Where she lay
Just before she died.
Are you a prophet, has Satan sent you?
And that raven repeated "nevermore".
Go away, long. How can a being like this you call yourself?
Old raven,
I beg you to allow my poor soul
That I buried with Leonor to rest.
Only repeats "nevermore".
Oh, my Lord. Perhaps I will, in Eden,
See her again.
If I die I may embrace
Her smooth skin. Oh, Leonor.
Still there, infernal raven.
Her gray shadow will not cease.
Go away, long. How can a being like this
You call yourself?
Old raven, he only answered
"Nevermore".
And in shadows, cursed animal,
Only knew to repeat "nevermore".
