"Contigo por"

¿Mi tierra?
Mi tierra eres tú.

¿Mi gente?
Mi gente eres tú.

El destierro y la muerte
para mi están adonde
no estés tú.

¿Y mi vida?
Dime, mi vida,
¿qué es, si no eres tú?

"With You"

by Luis Cernuda

My world?
You are my world.

My people?
You are my people.

For me, exile and death
are where you are not present.

And… My life?
Tell me, my life,
What is it, if it’s not you?

"Amor"

Amar es este tímido silencio
cerca de ti, sin que lo sepas,
y recordar tu voz cuando te marchas
y sentir el calor de tu saludo.

Amar es aguardarte
como si fueras parte del ocaso,
ni antes ni después, para que estemos solos
entre los juegos y los cuentos
sobre la tierra seca.

Amar es percibir, cuando te ausentas,
tu perfume en el aire que respiro,
y contemplar la estrella en que te alejas
cuando cierro la puerta de la noche.

"Love"

by Salvador Novo

To love is this shy silence
close to you, without you knowing,
and remember your voice when you leave
and feel the warmth of your greeting.

To love is to wait for you
as if you were part of the sunset,
neither before nor after, so that we are alone
between games and stories
on dry land.

To love is to perceive, when you are absent,
your perfume in the air that I breathe,
and appreciate the star in which you walk away
when I close the door at night.
