These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Qué pena, que se acabara
What a pity, that it ended
Qué pena por la manera
What a pity for the way
Qué pena, que pase el tiempo
What a pity, that time passes
Y me siga dando pena
And I still feel sorry
Una madeja de risa
a skein of laughter
En un charquito de esmalte
In a puddle of enamel
Un dibujito de tiza
a chalk drawing
Un acertijo muy fácil
A very easy riddle
Es un churrete de luna
It's a moon smear
Con encajitos chocantes
With shocking little laces
Unas cosquillas de cuna
Some cradle tickling
Un pellizquito de amante
A pinch of lover
Es un capricho de azúcar
It's a sugar treat
Es un flequito del aire
It's a fringe of the air
Niño recién nació
child just born
Que columpia despertares
what a swing wake up
Ojala que hubieras visto
I wish you would have seen
La sonrisa de tu mare
the smile of your mother
Celos es lo que tengo
Jealousy is what I have
No es que tenga dudas
It's not that I have doubts
Y es que tengo miedo
And it's that I'm afraid
Todavía yo no me creo que te tengo
I still don't believe that I have you
Vivimos con la dignidad
we live with dignity
Del que es capaz con solo una mirada
Of which he is capable with just a look
De distinguir una verdad
To distinguish a truth
Entre miles de mentiras disfrazadas
Among thousands of disguised lies
No me creo que te tengo
I don't believe that I have you
Quererse no es tener secretos
Loving each other is not having secrets
Y sin embargo seguir siendo
And yet continue to be
Y el uno para el otro
and for each other
Y el mayor de los misterios
And the greatest of mysteries
Yo no me creo que te tengo
I do not believe that I have you
Cuando yo quise tu no querías
When I wanted you did not want
Y cuando por fin quisiste
And when you finally wanted
Yo quise querer pero no podía
I wanted to want but I couldn't
Los paisajes más bellos
The most beautiful landscapes
Viven en la mente de los ciegos
They live in the minds of the blind
Y la esperanza mas fuerte surge
And the strongest hope arises
De los que no tienen remedio
Of those who have no remedy
Yo no me creo que te tengo
I do not believe that I have you
