Canción de amor [English translation]

I wait for your step in my stairway

From seven to nine behind my door

Your firm step, step by step

Sometimes quick, sometimes slow.

I want your shadow near mine,

Your warm weight over my pillow,

To say in silence, to say without words,

Your sweet mouth my bitter mouth.

I've seen the dawn coming,

I've seen the sun rise

In this long darkness

Of my room

I feel your hand over my face

Inch by inch over my skin

Between my unraveled hair

From eyes to toes.

I had your body near my body,

My uncertain body, your fleeting one.

I meant to take you in my poor veins,

To have you in my blood when you leave.

I've seen the dawn coming,

I've seen the sun rise

In this long darkness

Of my room
