Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Aunque No Quiero, Veo Que Me Alejo by Silvio Rodriguez from Spanish to English.
Aunque no quiero, veo que me alejo
Although I don't want to, I see myself moving away
Y, para que no olvides que te tuve
And so you don't forget that I had you
Te dejaré un mensaje en el espejo
I'll leave you a message in the mirror
Y la posdata, dibujada en una nube
And the postscript, drawn on a cloud
Anoche me seguían los demonios
Last night the demons followed me
Y no quise llevarlos a tu puerta
And I didn't want to bring them to your door
Saliendo el sol, logré burlar sus odios
As the sun rose, I managed to outwit their hatred
Y no me voy, hasta que no te vea despierta
And I'm not leaving until I see you awake
Seré un susurro cuando te levantes
I'll be a whisper when you wake up
Sombra apenas sobre la luna fría
Shadow barely on the cold moon
Dos palabras verás sólo un instante
Two words you will see only for an instant
Pero sin dudas, sabrás que fueron mías
But without a doubt, you will know that they were mine
Perdona que no me haya contenido
Sorry I didn't contain myself
Y que haya violado estos umbrales
And that you have violated these thresholds
Para dejarte aliento desvaído
To leave you breathless
Por sentimientos , que yo te juré inmortales
For feelings, that I swore immortal to you
