Because Life is Worth Living

They took my life
They snatched it away
Sad that day
The sun turned off
 
The flowers cried
The angels cried
Some stars too
The world stopped
 
They took my life
They snatched it away
The dreams ended
The illusions too
 
From here in the heavens
Where we the dead live
Stop crying, I ask you
in this song
 
What I want to say
Is that life is worth living
And because it is worth living
you need to live
 
In any instant
When you least expect it
Just like that, everything comes to an end
 
They took my life
They snatched it away
Sad that day
The sun just turned off
 
Money is not important
Nor social classes
Only honoring the moment
And happiness
 
What I want to say
Is that life is worth living
And because it is worth living
you need to live
 
In any instant
When you least expect it
Just like that, everything comes to an end
 
What I want to say
Is that life is worth living
And because it is worth living
you need to live

When you least expect it

In any instant

Just like that, everything comes to an end
Life is worth living
 

Te tudod hogyan kell engem szeretni

Annyi idõ eltelt
Végül felfedeztem csókjaidat
Belegabalyodtam a tekintetedbe
Az összes hibámmal együtt öleltél
Te tudod hogyan kell engem szeretni
Te tudod hogyan kell engem imádni
Kedvesem, ne menj el
Maradj örökkön-örökké
Hogy szerethesselek az idõk végezetéig
 
Szívem, te tudod
Hogyan kell engem helyesen szeretni
Én vagyok a lángoló virág, mely színt ad
Életed kertjének
Szívem, te tudod
Hogyan kell engem helyesen szeretni
Kérlek, ne hagyj el
És én elég bátor leszek ahhoz, hogy viszont szeresselek
 
Annyi idõ eltelt
Mostmár tudom, hogy készen állok
Oly nehéz szerelmet találni
Hogy csak itt állok nyitott sebekkel
Nem érdekel mit gondolnak mások
Itt maradok, hogy az élet tanuja legyek
Örökkön-örökké itt,
Hogy szerethessünk az idõk végezetéig
 
Szívem, te tudod
Hogyan kell engem helyesen szeretni
Én vagyok a lángoló virág, mely színt ad
Életed kertjének
Szívem, te tudod
Hogyan kell engem helyesen szeretni
Kérlek, ne hagyj el
És én elég bátor leszek ahhoz, hogy viszont szeresselek

Kérlek, ne hagyj el
És én elég bátor leszek ahhoz, hogy viszont szeresselek
 
Szívem, szívem te tudod
(Hogyan kell engem helyesen szeretni)
Szívem, te tudod hogyan kell engem szeretni, szerelmem
(Hogyan kell engem helyesen szeretni)
Au, ne menj el
Maradj örökre
(Hogyan kell engem helyesen szeretni)
És én elég bátor leszek ahhoz, hogy viszont szeresselek szerelmem
(Hogyan kell engem helyesen szeretni)

I Will Follow You

I will follow you, because on the road where you go, I'll go with you
I will follow you, because if you really love me, I'll bless you
I will follow you, and if someday I didn't find you in my path
 
Your shadow
It won't be a shadow, it'll be the light of my destiny
If you don't love me and in the end we're friends
Say which streets you'll walk through and I will follow you

To the root

Versions:
I keep crossing rivers
Hiking trought forests
Loving the sun
Every day I keep taking off thorns
from the deep of my heart
At night I light up dreams
to clean with the sacred smoke every memory
 
When I write down your name
in the white sand, with a back of blue
When I look at the sky in the cruel form of a gray cloud
you come into view
On afternoon I'll climb a hill
look at the past
you'll know I haven't forgotten you
 
I keep you inside me, as deep as the root
And it does not matter how much I grow up, you will be here
Even though I hide behind the mountain
Or found a field full of sugar cane
There is no way, my moonlight
That you'll go away.
 
I think that every moment that I survive while I'm walking by
And every second of incertitude
Every moment of my not knowing
Are the exact key to the tissue
I carry beneath my skin
That's the way I protect you
You are here inside (me)
 
I keep you inside me, as deep as the root
And it does not matter how much I grow up, you will be here
Even though I hide behind the mountain
Or found a field full of sugar cane
There is no way, my moonlight
That you'll go away.
 

Love Ends

Because the soul becomes empty
Like a pitcher in the sky.
Love ends!
 
Because it slips away softly
Like a shadow, a caress.
Love ends!
 
Because sorrow is smoke
And words are ash.
Love ends!
 
Because the heart of surrender,
A day comes that it breaks.
Love ends!
 
Because they become chains,
What were once white ribbons.
Love ends!
 
Because it becomes routine,
The most divine caress.
Love ends!
 
Because we are like rivers,
The water new every moment.
Love ends!
 
Because they die, the desires
For flesh and for kisses.
Love ends!
 
Because time has fissures,
Because the soul has fissures,
Because nothing is forever,
And even beauty becomes tiresome.
Love ends!

In my Land of Veracruz

In my land of Veracruz
I only want to drink coffee
A little bit of sugar and cane
To get me to move my feet
From the stalk of a banana
Of it's green and brown skin
I'm all in love again
I just want to see you again
See you again
See you again
My land in Veracruz, I want to see you
See you again
See you again
My land in Veracruz, I want to love you
In my land of Veracruz
I just want to hug the sea
See the night from a hammock
In the morning just sing
My legs enter the field
In the sand only dance
In a ship to give my dreams
And in my house to be lazy
See you again
See you again
My land in Veracruz, I want to see you
See you again
See you again
My land in Veracruz I want to love you
There's not a day that goes by that I don't miss you
There's not a day that goes by that I don't think about you
This distance makes me miss you
There's not a day that goes by that I don't think about you
I paint melodies with your landscapes
With your landscapes of lime green
A guava rose that I'll use for love
A red yellow pitaya and the flower
Blue of your gulf for passion
See you again
See you again
My land in Veracruz, I want to see you
See you again
See you again
Coffee with bread
In my land of Veracruz
I only want to drink coffee
A little bit of sugar and cane
To get me to move my feet
From the stalk of a banana
Of it's green and brown skin
I'm all in love again
I just want to see you again
See you again
See you again
My land in Veracruz, I want to see you
See you again
See you again

Destiny

Destiny is so cruel
That it has already salted the honey
And the fields have withered away already
The ice cream has a bad taste
Life is darkness
If there's no king or snow white
 
And Benito was lost in the sadness, in the pain
And it hurt Maria, but she recovered
 
My grandmother says that
It's impossible to understand that life can be light (be light)
Enjoy laughter
Walk in the earth
Without love it can be worthwhile
 
And Benito was lost in the sadness, in the pain
And it hurt Maria, but she recovered
 
Destiny is so cruel
That it has already salted the honey
And my heart broken in two
Left me alone

It's Never Enough

Versions: #3
It's never enough for me
Because I always want more from you
I'd like to make you happier
Today, tomorrow, forever until the end
 
My heart is bursting for your love
And what do you think? That this is very normal?
Are you that accustomed to love?
That you can't see, I've never been like this
 
If by chance
You see me crying a little
It's because I love you
 
And you leave, playing at winning hearts
All of the fleeting dreams/thrills that are within reach
And you won't see, that what I offer you
Is something unconditional
 
And you leave, playing at winning hearts
At night you get tangled up in affairs that never have an end
You'll become lost in my memories
For having made me cry
 
It's never enough for me
Because I always want more from you
My feelings haven't changed at all
Even though you do me wrong, I want you here

How can I prevent it from shattering inside?

My Soul

My lonesome soul
Always alone
Without anyone understanding your suffering,
Your horrible suffering
 
Imitating an existence is always full
Of joy and pleasure
Of joy and pleasure
 
If I were to find a soul like mine,
how many secret things would I tell it?
A soul that looks at me, without saying a thing
It would tell me something with only a look
 
A soul that would get me drunk with a slow breath
That, to kiss me, it would feel what I feel
And sometimes I ask myself what would happen
If I were to find a soul like mine
 
A soul that looks at me, without saying a thing
It would tell me something with only a look
 
A soul that would get me drunk with a slow breath
That, to kiss me, it would feel what I feel
And sometimes I ask myself what would happen
If I were to find a soul like mine
 

You do know how to love me

Stay forever, and ever
So I can love you forever
 
My love, you do know how to

So much time has passed

Loving each other forever

Rocío of the Field

Dew of the field
Salt spray of the sea
Your dance hypnotizes the moon
And the wind begins to sing
 
You light the fire in the night
Listen to the crickets talking
You undress your body and soul
To swim in the water
 
You will be free forever, forever
A purple butterfly among bamboo
 
You fire the clay in your hands
Passions of forbidden love
You fire the clay in your hands
Passions of forbidden love
 
Tears of loved ones1
Who go to your house to cry
Tears of close ones2
Of gatherings and of solitude
 
You light the fire in the night
Listen to ghosts walking
You undress your body and soul
To swim in the water
 
You will be free forever, forever
A purple butterfly among bamboo
 
Death came, luring your spirit
Wrapping your cloak
Death came, luring your spirit
And you left for the field
 
You will be free forever, forever
A purple butterfly among bamboo
 
Dew of the field
You will be free
Dew of the field
You will be free
Dew of the field
You will be free
Dew of the field
You will be free, you will be free

Cinnamon Skin

May the infinite run out of stars
And may the sea lose its immensity,
But may the blackness of your eyes not die1
And the scent of your skin remains the same.
 
Even if the rainbow loses its beauty
And the flowers their fragance and color.
My sadness wouldn't be so great
As that of running out of your love.
 
I care about you, and you, and you,
And only you, and you, and you.
I care about you, and you, and you,
And no one else but you.
 
May the infinite run out of stars
And may the sea lose its immensity,

My sadness wouldn't be so great
As that of running out of your love.
 
I care about you, and you, and you,
And only you, and you, and you.
I care about you, and you, and you,
And no one else but you.
 
I care about you, and you, and you,
And only you, and you, and you.
I care about you, and you, and you,
And no one else but you.
 
Black eyes, cinnamon skin
That sometimes desperate me2
 
I care about you, and you, and you, and you, and you,
I care about you, and you, and you,
And no one else but you.
 
I care about you, my love
Just you, my love
And only you.
 

• 1. This one is hard for me to translate. Is this grammatically correct? I'm not sure
• 2. I think that 'Me llegan' implies that it only happens sometimes, maybe? At least I use it that way

I am the forbidden

I am that vice of the flesh1
which you now can't get rid of.
I'm the forbidden.
 
I am that fever of your being
which rules you without wanting to.
I'm the forbidden.
 
I'm that night of pleasure
the one of the paperless surrender.
I'm your punishment.
 
Because in your fake intimacy,
in each embrace that you give him
you dream of me.
 
I am the sin that gave you
a new illusion about love.
I'm the forbidden.
 
I am the affair that turned up
to help you to carry on
in your path.
 
I am that kiss which is given
but can't be commented on,
I am that name which you never
will speak anywhere but here.
 
I am that love which you deny
in order to preserve your dignity.
I am the forbidden.
