Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Hermana duda by Jorge Drexler from Spanish to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
No tengo a quien rezarle pidiendo luz
I have no one to pray to for light
Ando tanteando el espacio a ciegas
I'm groping the space blindly
No me malinterpreten, no estoy quejándome
Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining.
Soy jardinero de mis dilemas
I am a gardener of my dilemmas
Hermana duda, pasarán los años
Sister doubt, the years will pass
Cambiarán las modas
fashions will change
Vendrán otras guerras
Other wars will come
Perderán los mismos y ojalá que tú
They will lose the same and hopefully you
Sigas teniéndome a tiro
keep on shooting me
Pero esta noche, hermana duda
But tonight, sister doubt
Hermana duda, dame un respiro
Sister doubt, give me a break
No tengo a quien culpar
I have no one to blame
Que no sea yo
Let it not be me
Con mi reguero de cabos sueltos
With my trail of loose ends
No me malinterpreten
don't get me wrong
Lo llevo bien o por lo menos
I take it well or at least
Hago el intento
I am trying
Hermana duda, pasarán los discos
Sister doubt, the records will pass
Subirán las aguas
the waters will rise
Cambiarán las crisis
crises will change
Y pagarán los mismos
And they will pay the same
Y ojalá que tú
and hopefully you
Sigas mordiendo mi lengua
keep biting my tongue
Pero esta noche
but tonight
Hermana duda, dame una tregua
Sister doubt, give me a truce
Hermana duda, pasarán los años
Sister doubt, the years will pass
Cambiarán las modas
fashions will change
Vendrán otras guerras
Other wars will come
Perderán los mismos y ojalá que tú
They will lose the same and hopefully you
Sigas teniéndome a tiro
keep on shooting me
Pero esta noche, hermana duda
But tonight, sister doubt
Solo esta noche, dame un respiro
Just tonight, give me a break
