Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Dos Almas by Ibrahim Ferrer from Spanish to English.
Dos almas que en el mundo
Two souls in the world
Había unido Dios
God had united
Dos almas que se amaban
Two souls that loved each other
Eso éramos tú y yo
That was you and I
Por la sangrante herida
Because of the bleeding wound
Que nuestro amor dejó
That our love left
Nos dábamos la vida
We gave each other life
Como jamás se dio
As never happened
Un día en el camino
One day on the road
Que cruzaban nuestras almas
When our souls crossed
Surgió una sombra de odio
A shadow of hate arose
Que nos apartó a los dos
That separated us both
Y desde aquel instante
And from that moment
Mejor fuera morir
It would be better to die
Ni cerca ni distante
Neither near nor far
Podemos ya vivir
Now we can live
Un día en el camino
One day on the road
Que cruzaban nuestras almas
When our souls crossed
Surgió una sombra de odio
A shadow of hate arose
Que nos apartó a los dos
That separated us both
Y desde aquel instante
And from that moment
Mejor fuera morir
It would be better to die
Ni cerca ni distante
Neither near nor far
Podemos ya vivir
Now we can live
Ni cerca ni distante
Neither near nor far
Podemos ya vivir
Now we can live
