Tengo Miedo
Marife de Triana
I'm Afraid
When you truly love
fear is your jailer,
and your heart dies
if they don't tell you I love you.
And anything hurts you
as it's happening to me,
I wake up crying
with tremors of agony,
because your eyes, my path,
and that color of your hair
still asleep make me jealous,
gypsy, gypsy, of my soul.
Fear, I'm afraid,
afraid of loving you.
Fear, I'm afraid,
afraid of losing you.
I dream night and day
that I'm left without you.
I have, my love,
fear, a lot of fear.
I tremble to see myself with you
and I tremble if I don't see you.
This love is a punishment
a punishment that I desire.
I don't believe in your words
and neither do you in mine.
Because of your crazy advance
my thoughts already hurt
from this dagger that I sense
will fill me with agony,
gypsy, gypsy, of my torments.
Fear, I'm afraid,
afraid of loving you.
Fear, I'm afraid,
afraid of losing you.
I dream night and day
that I'm left without you.
I have, my love,
fear, a lot of fear.
