Brillo de Mar En Tus Ojos
Violeta Parra
Shine of Sea in Your Eyes
Shine of sea in your eyes,
Echo of lullaby in your voice,
Dry rosemary in your hair,
No one tell me no.
You have left, leaving my eyes blind
I stay in the darkness without your love
It will be the curse that haunts me
Will that be the destiny of us both.
Present, I loved you madly
Absent, I love you more and more
I don't know if your soul will feel the same
Knowing it will be a happiness.
To your angelic pupils
I render veneration,
I give for them what I have
And all that I am.
Your name, with the purity of the tuberose,
Is fixed in my thoughts
Singing, I want to reach your soul,
And then bid you farewell.
