Santa Elegía
Carlos Vives
Holy Elegy
In the sad night
to Holy Elegy
they breathed deeply
the bitter joy
drank deeply
no way out
and with hatred ignited
life went out.
He looked while sleeping
understood nothing
discovered the story
that was lost
rose above the clouds
towards life
kissed the princess
who was asleep.
You know that I love you
dearly
I would like to live with you
every day
after the storm
comes the calm
and the sun that already blooms for us, my love
