Porque te quiero a ti
Because I love you
Porque te quiero,
Because I love you,
Cerré mi puerta una mañana
I closed my door one morning
Y eché a andar.
And I started walking.
Porque te quiero a ti
Because I love you
Porque te quiero,
Because I love you,
Dejé los montes
I left the mountains
Y me vine al mar.
And I came to the sea.
Tu nombre me sabe a hierba
your name tastes like grass to me
De la que nace en el valle
Of the one that is born in the valley
A golpes de sol y de agua,
With sun and water blows,
Tu nombre me lleva atado
your name leads me
En un pliege de tu talle
In a fold of your size
Y en el viés de tu enagua.
And in the viés of your petticoat.
Porque te quiero a ti

Aunque estas lejos

Yo te siento a flor de piel.
I feel you on the surface.
Porque te quiero a ti

Se hace mas corto

El camino aquel.
The path that
Tu nombre me sabe a yerba

A golpes de sol y de agua,
With sun and water blows,

En un pliege de tu talle
In a fold of your size
Y en el biés de tu enagua.
And on the bias of your petticoat.

Because I love you,
Mi voz se rompe como el cielo
