Como Se Ama a Una Verdad

Silvio Rodriguez Silvio Rodriguez

How to Love a Truth

You met me when I was
Lighting up stars of warmth,
Night flowers that illuminated
My smile without pain.

I still slept with my sad teddy bear
And darkness still made me shiver.
I was like that, and that's how you loved me
How one loves a truth.

Now I'm still just as in love
With the paths I dreamed of yesterday,
But you're no longer there for my wings.
Now I can only yearn for you.

What will become of the sun that goes to the parks?
What will become of the sea without my passion?
What will become of the light if you arrive late?
What will become of everything without my love?

You adored every mischief
And puppy wolf, my mouse,
My old shoes, my paintings,
My only and happy song.

And everything is boring if there's not everything.
They've made a garden, it lacks a flower.
Forgetting the world is not a good way
To have and give love.

Because I'm still just as in love
With the paths I dreamed of yesterday,
But now you're no longer there for my wings.
Now I can only yearn for you.

What will become of the sun that goes to the parks?
What will become of the sea without my passion?
What will become of the light if you arrive late?
What will become of everything without my love?

And everything is boring if there's not everything.
They've made a garden, it lacks a flower.
Forgetting the world is not a good way
To have and give love.
