Translation

Soy ayuno de tu ser

I am fasting from your being

hago dieta de tus besos

I go on a diet of your kisses

ni siquiera como perdices

I don't even eat partridges

porque una gripe aviar

because bird flu

se ha encargao de destrozar

has taken care of destroying

lo bueno y malo de este cuento.

the good and bad of this story.


Que ya no cuento ovejas

I no longer count sheep

para conciliar el sueño

to fall asleep

ahora cuento todo aquello

now I count everything

que no depende de algun dueño.

that doesn't depend on an owner.


Que pena del que se duerme

Pity the one who falls asleep

se lo lleva la corriente

he is carried away by the current

se queda estancaito

he remains stuck

en lo muerto y en lo inerte

in the dead and in the inert

pongamos un final

let's put an end

de cualquier dichoso día

to any blessed day

asi suena la esperanza

that's how hope sounds

ante una amarga despedida.

before a bitter farewell.
