Quisiera Amarte Menos

Spring of my twenties
Reliquary of my youth
A happy affection I dreamed of
And I am alone with my slavery

How many times I have begged fate
to be a slave to this blue dream
A happy affection I have dreamed of
And I am alone with my slavery

I wish I could love you less
I wish I could not see you anymore
Save myself from this fire
That I can't resist
I don't want this affection
That gives me no rest
Without you, I can't find peace
And I can't live far away

I wish I could love you less
Because this is no longer life
My life is lost
From loving you so much

I don't know if I need
to have you or lose you
I know that I have loved you
More than I could
I wish I could love you less
Seeking to forget
And instead of loving you less
I love you much more

I know that between two who love each other
Affection must be different
While one gives their whole life
The other just lets themselves be loved

I know and yet I can't
Be content with just loving you
I'm afraid it will never end
This harsh sentence of love

I wish I could love you less...

They advise me to forget you
Oh, what barbarity!
How not to know how to love
They don't know how to advise
