Translation

Me llené un poco la boca

I filled my mouth a bit

Con el aire de este bosque espeso

With the air of this dense forest

Que me hablara de penumbra y soledades

That spoke to me of shadows and solitudes

Y me puse a ver el sol y el aire

And I started to see the sun and the air

Y me puse a ver clarear

And I started to see it clear

Y me puse a verlo todo

And I started to see everything

Y no me cansé de mirar

And I didn't tire of looking

Era como si me fuera nuevo

It was as if it were new to me

Lo que algún día vi normal

What I once saw as normal

Me quité despacio la pistola

I slowly took off the gun

Que me enfriaba el paladar

That cooled my palate


Ya me estaba sacudiendo

I was already shaking off

De este mundo con un tiro

This world with a shot

Cuando el golpe de la vida en mi cobró

When the blow of life collected from me

Sobre mi sombra y mi suerte y de verdad

On my shadow and my luck, and truly

Que no contaba con el miedo ni el dolor

I didn't count on fear or pain


No iba a hallar explicaciones

I wasn't going to find explanations

Solamente iba a quitarme los recuerdos

I was only going to rid myself of memories

O la vida que era igual

Or life, which was the same

Pero si no iba morirme ni de penas ni recuerdos

But if I wasn't going to die from sorrows or memories

Para que llegué a matarme donde no hay

Why did I come to kill myself where there is nothing

Y aunque el recuerdo es un rato

And although the memory is a moment

Que dejara hace un segundo

That I left behind a second ago

Ya he pensado recordarme y nada más

I've already thought to remember myself and nothing more

A un sujeto que se quita

To a person who removes

La muerte y se la echa a un lado

Death and sets it aside

Ante la ovación de vida forestal

Amidst the applause of forest life
