Inquietud
Margarita Rosa de Francisco
Restlessness
Restlessness why do you torment me
Don't you see that I'm alone, that my soul is dead
That night after night I toss and turn in my bed awake
That for so long I've been in a room without doors
Where there's no escape, where there's only sorrows
Where days pass slowly and sadly
Leaving a residue of restlessness and misery.
Restlessness why do you torment me
Don't you see that I'm alone, that my soul is dead
That night after night I toss and turn in my bed awake
That for so long I've been in a room without doors (repeat)
I long for peace, love, and my land
And the days of yesterday that may not return
When in the darkness I glimpsed a star
But it faded away like a mirage that when touched, moves away
Leaving a deep void that when we lose everything, remains.
Restlessness why do you torment me
Don't you see that I'm alone, that my soul is dead
That night after night I toss and turn in my bed awake
That for so long I've been in a room without doors (repeat)
