Esta Cobardia
Valentín Elizalde
This Cowardice
She doesn't even realize when I look at her
To not give myself away, I hold back a sigh
That my silent love ignites when I see her
That I would give my life to possess her
She doesn't even realize that my eyes shine
That I tremble by her side and even blush
That she is the reason that awakens my love
That she is my delirium and she doesn't realize
This cowardice of my love for her
Makes me see her like a star
So far, so far in the vastness
That I never expect to reach her
(Repeated)
Oh! Oh! How I suffer! There goes my girl!
She doesn't even realize that I have obtained her
The warm kisses she hasn't asked for
That in my sad, dreamless nights
In a crazy desire, I feel like her owner
She doesn't even realize that I have already enjoyed her
That she has been mine without being loved
That it's her cold soul that torments me
That she sees me dying and doesn't realize
This cowardice of my love for her
Makes me see her like a star
So far, so far in the vastness
That I never expect to reach her
(Repeated)
