These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Aire, en esta linda tarde de verano
Air, on this beautiful summer afternoon
Tu recuerdo es una foto gris
Your memory is a gray photo
Que las horas van difuminando
That the hours are blurring
Que difícil dibujar tus rasgos
How difficult to draw your features
Mediodía después de partir
Noon after departure
Aire, sí tus ojos eran higos negros
Air, yes your eyes were black figs
Sí los dientes gajos de limón
Yes the teeth lemon wedges
No recuerdo el largo de tus cejas
I don't remember the length of your eyebrows
Ni siquiera puedo hablar apenas
I can't even barely speak
De otra cosa que no sea tu olor
Of something other than your smell
La mente cuando baja la marea
The mind when the tide goes out
Por puro instinto de conservación
Out of pure self-preservation
Intenta cauterizar cada huella
Try to cauterize every footprint
Que deja atrás el paso del amor
That leaves behind the passage of love
La mente cuando baja la marea
The mind when the tide goes out
Mostrando la estructura del dolor
Showing the structure of pain
Activa un mecanismo de defensa
Activates a defense mechanism
Para que no se ahogue el corazón
So that the heart does not drown
Bello, con tu perfecto perfil tal hebreo
Beautiful, with your perfect profile such a Hebrew
Desaliñado, lleno de proyectos
Scruffy, full of projects
Hombros cargados y zapatos viejos
Heavy shoulders and old shoes
Aire, me falta el aire
Air, I lack air
En esta linda tarde de verano
On this beautiful summer afternoon
No logro describirte
I can't describe you
Tu recuerdo es una foto gris
Your memory is a gray photo
Apenas perfilada
Barely outlined
Que las horas van difuminando
That the hours are blurring
Aire, intento dibujar
Air, I try to draw
Tus rasgos pero casi ya no puedo
Your features but I can hardly anymore
Por mucho que lo intento
As much as I try
Que difícil es reconocer
How difficult it is to recognize
Con todo lo que amamos
With everything we love
Que no me has dejado apenas huella
That you have hardly left a trace on me
Aire, ahora cuando baja la marea
Air, now when the tide goes out
Y el naufragio ya es total
And the shipwreck is already total
