Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Como un Dolor de Muelas by Joaquin Sabina from Spanish to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Como si llegaran a buen puerto mis ansias
As if my desires came to fruition
Como si hubiera donde hacerse fuerte
As if there was anywhere to become strong
Como si hubiera por fin destino para mis pasos
As if there was finally a destination for my steps
Como si encontrara mi verdad primera
As if I found my truth first
Como traerse al hoy cada mañana
How to bring yourself to today every morning
Como un suspiro profundo y quedo
Like a deep breath and stay
Como un dolor de muelas aliviado
Like a toothache eased
Como lo imposible por fin hecho
Like the impossible finally done
Como si alguien de veras me quisiera
as if someone really loved me
Como si al fin un buen poema me saliera
As if at last a good poem came out
Como si la arena cantara en el desierto
As if the sand sang in the desert
Los cantos de sirena del mar Muerto
The siren songs of the Dead Sea
Como si para crecer sobraran las escaleras
As if the stairs were left over to grow
Como si escribiera un ciego un libro abierto
As if a blind man wrote an open book
Ven a poblar el zócalo de ojos
Come to populate the socket of eyes
Siembra de migas de pan caliente
Sowing hot breadcrumbs
Mis canas de alcanfor adolescente
My adolescent camphor gray hair
Ponle al sordo voz y alas al cojo
Give the deaf a voice and wings to the lame
Bendice nuestro arroz, nuestro minuto
Bless our rice, our minute
Como si no fuéramos cómplices del luto
As if we were not complicit in mourning
Del corazón
From the heart
