Cumplir un año menos [English translation]
Cumplir un año menos [English translation]
It's my birthday again and there will be two plates on my table
Even though I know you won't be coming this time.
The only present I want is to turn back the calendar
So that these years go backward.
I would turn a year younger and blowing would re-light
The candles you put on the cake,
Autumn would follow winter, and August would follow September
And tomorrow will be a little more yesterday.
Why do I want words if I'm not singing to you any more?
Why do I want my lips if I've lost your kisses?
I don't want my springs is your violets aren't growing
Starting today, I will grow until I was born.
We would return to the happiest day of our lives
And one more time would be the first time
All the tears that fell on the urgent paper telegram
Would return to my eyes.
The news would tell how the bullets returned
To the weapons that were pointed to kill,
All the dissenting voices would return to life
And with them, more liberty.
Why do I want words if I'm not singing to you any more?
Why do I want my lips if I've lost your kisses?
I don't want my springs is your violets aren't growing
Starting today, I will grow until I was born.
And why do I want air if your breath is not here?
Why do I want my hands if they can't touch you?
I don't want my springs if your violets aren't growing
Starting today I will grow until I was born.
I will grow until I was born.
Starting today I will grow until I was born.
Starting today I will grow until I was born.
