La canción de la noche
Rolando Alárcon
The song of the night
When I started to love you
I didn't know about the night.
I sailed aimlessly,
darkness was my North.
Your word came to me,
it remained silent.
At the expected hour
it merged with the night
and the star that shone
further north, further north.
It told me that you loved me,
that you loved me with the night.
It became slow without the wait,
if I saw your eyes,
the night, my companion,
I laughed, you laughed.
And the night taught me
to love you every day,
to enjoy your words,
to live from your smile,
to warm the soul,
to look at the dawn,
and the night took you away
and now I cry for your departure.
