Despierto de una erótica caricia
I wake up from an erotic caress
Y sin amanecer me estoy quemando
And without sunrise I'm burning
Ruego que antes del fin de la delicia
I pray that before the end of delight
La luz me diga a quien estoy amando
The light tell me who I'm loving
Hago un café romántico, barroco
I make a romantic, baroque coffee
Recorro mi cabeza en agua fría
I run my head in cold water
Y en el espejo veo el viejo loco
And in the mirror I see the old fool
Que cada día piensa que es su día

Que es su día

Vaya forma de saber

Que aun quiere llover
That he still wants to rain
Sobre mojado
on wet
Vaya forma de saber
what a way to know
Que aun quiere llover
That he still wants to rain
Sobre mojado

Leo que hubo masacre y recompensa

Que retocan la muerte, el egoísmo

Reviso pues la fecha de la prensa

Pareció que ayer decía lo mismo

Me entrego preocupado a la lectura

Del diario acontecer de nuestra trama

Y se por la sección de la cultura

Que el pasado conquista nueva fama

Salgo y pregunto por un viejo amigo

De aquellos tiempos duranmente humanos

Pero nos lo ha podrido el enemigo

Degollaron su alma en nuestras manos

Absurdo suponer que el paraíso

Y así termina el día que relato

Con un batir de alas en las cenizas

Mañana volverá con nuevo impacto

El sol que me evapora y me da prisa
