Below, I translated the lyrics of the song La nieve en la bola de nieve by Jorge Drexler from Spanish to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Una nostalgia donde se condensa el rocío
A nostalgia where the dew condenses
Un paso en falso hacia un remolino en el río
A false step towards an eddy in the river
Cualquier contrasentido hoy cobra sentido y se vuelve dilema
Any contradiction today makes sense and becomes a dilemma
Para este corazón
for this heart
Que hoy piensa solo en la mitad faltante
That today he only thinks of the missing half
Una insistente desazón que no entiende razones
An insistent unease that does not understand reasons
Un cancionista que no entiende sus propias canciones
A singer who doesn't understand his own songs
La mínima brisa como si fuera un ciclón
The slightest breeze as if it were a cyclone
Desquicia la veleta de este corazón
unhinged the weathervane of this heart
Sin paciencia
Without patience
Mira el cristal del freno
look at the brake glass
De emergencia
Of emergency
(Un acople de sonido que da su propio sonido, se realimenta)
(A sound coupling that gives its own sound, feeds back)
(Una obsesión girando en su propia espiral de nubes de tormenta)
(An obsession spinning in its own spiral of storm clouds)
(Todo puede ser)
(All can be)
(Tan peligrosamente leve)
(so dangerously mild)
(Como la nieve, en la bola de nieve)
(Like snow, in the snowball)
Como la nieve, en la bola de nieve (en la bola de nieve)
Like the snow, in the snowball (in the snowball)
