Sombra Enamorada
Los Manseros Santiagueños
Enamored Shadow
If life is a moment
just as it comes, it goes
only love with its magic
stops the course of time
puts a trill to silence
and turns stone into water
If autumn is a lament
crying asleep flowers
if the leaves are wounds
that escape to the wind
why be distant
when we could be a meeting
If the moon is a mirror
where the night looks at itself
as if it were a ghost
yearning to be day
let me light up the dream
of your own fantasy
Bring out your inner shadow
put chains on the soul
cover me with the colors
of your enamored shadow
because life without love
is like an echo in nothingness
Why look from afar
at what we have so close
if the bird seeking the sky
never reaches its desire
it's better to be burning wood
a flame of a feeling
Why follow the trail
that gets lost in oblivion
if the trail is oneself
when affection blooms
when the dawn elves
escape from the soul
So let the guitar of the road sing
so let the verses that go with me sound
because with the sound of my verses
your destiny will be found
