Hoy mi hija me visita en casa
Today my daughter visits me at home
por primera vez,
for the first time,
traerá un vestido floreado, su sonrisa,
she will bring a flowery dress, her smile,
y su delgadez.
and her thinness.
Es que hace poco me dijo:
It's just that she recently told me:
yo ya estoy grande y me quiero ir,
I'm grown up and I want to go
tengo el trabajo muy lejos,
I have work far away
quiero un lugar para mí.
I want a place for myself.
Buscó y me mostró deseos,
She searched and showed me desires,
yo aporté la realidad,
I brought reality
le dije, sentado en la cama,
I told him, sitting on the bed,
te diste cuenta, hoy te vas...
Did you realize, today you're leaving...
Hoy te vas, hoy te vas,
Today you're leaving, today you're leaving,
hoy queda una vida entera,
today there is a whole life left,
en el pasado, detrás.
in the past, behind
No pude evitar que asome,
I couldn't stop it from peeking out,
en mis ojos la humedad,
in my eyes the humidity,
vi su carita sonriente en la escuela,
I saw her smiley face at school,
al verme llegar.
seeing me arrive
Y llevándola a teatro,
And taking her to the theater
verla bajar y correr,
See her go down and run
diez metros hasta la entrada,
ten meters to the entrance,
y saludar al torcer.
and greet when twisting.
Y luego trotar apenas,
And then just jogging,
años después caminar,
years later walking,
más preocupada en el paso,
more worried in the step,
que en la hora de llegar.
that at the time of arrival.
No está su voz en el aire,
Her voice is not in the air
sus personajes no están,
her characters are not there,
sus caminatas de insomnio golpeando puertas...
the sleepless walks of her knocking on doors...
no están.
They're not here.
Hoy te vas, hoy te vas,
Today you're leaving, today you're leaving,
hoy queda una vida entera,
today there is a whole life left,
en el pasado, detrás. [x2]
in the past, behind [x2]
Hoy me visita, hoy viene,
Today she visits me, today she comes,
mi hija que se fue, sabrás,
my daughter who left, you know,
le dije: aunque siempre quede abierta,
I told her: although she always remains open,
hoy una puerta cerrás.
Today you will close a door.
Tomamos té y le pedí,
We drank tea and I asked him,
que me cuente del trabajo,
she tell me about work,
me habló también de su novio,
she also told me about her boyfriend,
y de las flores del vecino de abajo.
and the flowers of the neighbor below.
Y entonces como al pasar,
And then as in passing,
jugando con unas migas,
playing with some crumbs,
pestañando algo ligero,
blinking something light,
y refrenando la intriga
and restraining the intrigue
Quizo saber si su cuarto,
He wanted to know if her room
seguía siéndolo hoy en día,
she still is today
si su lugar en la mesa,
if you place her on the table,
era el mismo y se mantenía.
it was the same and it remained.
Le dí respuestas ambiguas,
I gave him ambiguous answers,
le hablé de sus dos hermanos,
I told her about her two brothers of hers,
hice mínimo el dolor,
I minimized the pain
y aunque quisiera evitarlo.
and even if I wanted to avoid it.
Porque acá yo soy el padre,
Because here I am the father,
y siempre lo tuve claro,
and I always had it clear
los hijos un día se van,
the children one day leave,
porque es destino marcado.
because it is a marked destiny.
Un poco le hice doler,
I made him hurt a little
y no por cruel, ni malvado,
and not for cruel, nor evil,
sino porque ella se fue
but because she left
y yo quedé... abandonado.
and I was... abandoned.
Hoy te vas, hoy te vas,
Today you're leaving, today you're leaving,
hoy queda una vida entera,
today there is a whole life left,
en el pasado, detrás.
in the past, behind
