Todo se transforma [English translation]
Todo se transforma [English translation]
Your kiss became heat,
then heat movement,
then a drop of sweat
which became vapor, then wind
that in a corner of La Rioja
turned the sail of a windmill
while the wine was being pressed
which your red mouth drank.
Your red mouth in mine,
the cup that turns in my hand,
and as the wine fell
I knew that from a distant corner
of another galaxy
the love that you would give me
transformed would come back one day
to give you thanks
Each one gives what is received
and later receives what is given
Nothing's more simple
there's no other norm
nothing is lost
everything is transformed.
The wine that I paid for
with that italian euro
which had been in a wagon
before being in my hand
And before that in Turin
and before Turin in Prato
where they made my shoe
upon which the wine would fall.
Shoe that within a few hours
I will look for under your bed
with the morning lights
next to your flat sandals
which you bought that one time
in Salvador de Bahia
where to another you gave the love
that today I would give back to you.
Each one gives what is received
and later receives what is given
Nothing's more simple
there's no other norm
nothing is lost
everything is transformed.
