Translation

Como te he soñado ultimamente

How I have dreamt of you lately

como te he buscado entre la gente.

How I have searched for you among the people

como he despertado con tu nombre

How I have awakened with your name

aprisionado entre los dientes.

Imprisoned between my teeth


Cuando dejaras de estar presente

en los escondites de mi mente.

In the hiding places of my mind

No me importa cuando pues

I don't care when because

te quiero estar soñado eternamente.

Tengo que callar prudentemente

I have to silence prudently

lo que mi corazón siente

What my heart feels

cuando le habla el subconciente

When the subconscious speaks to it

de lo que eres para mi.

About what you are to me

Voy nadando contra la corriente

I am swimming against the current

en el agua de otra fuente que

In the water from another source that

me arrastra en su torrente

Drags me in its torrent

mas y mas lejos de ti,

More and more away from you

tengo que nadar contra corriente.

I have to swim against the current


Quisiera dormir profundamente,

I would like to sleep deeply

para que aparezcas de repente

So that you appear suddenly

y vivir el sueño de volver a ser

And live the dream of being

tu dueño nuevamente

Your owner again

hoy nuestro diagrama es diferente,

nuestras lineas no son convergentes,

ojala que no, que no vivas

como yo contra corriente.

Like me against the current
