Lyrics

Translation

Cuando se duerman las flores

When the flowers fall asleep

Recostándose en sus tallos

Lying down on their stems

Qué pena tendrá mi pena

What sorrow my sorrow will have

Si tú no estás a mi lado

If you are not by my side


Qué llanto tendrán las flores

What weeping the flowers will have

Al ir cayendo la tarde

As the evening falls

Si no te ven en mis brazos

If they don't see you in my arms

Y te imaginan distantes

And imagine you far away


No te vayas, te lo ruego

Don't go, I beg you

Quiero tu pelo, tus manos

I want your hair, your hands

El arroyo de mi sangre

The stream of my blood

Te está buscando, buscando

Is searching for you, searching


Los sueños que tú me diste

The dreams you gave me

Se están volviendo palomas

Are turning into doves

Y este río de mi cuerpo

And this river of my body

Se va enredando en las sombras

Is getting tangled in the shadows


Un ansia de flores nuevas

A yearning for new flowers

Forman tu nombre y el mío

Form your name and mine

Por ser mujer sos la tierra

Because as a woman, you are the earth

Y yo por hombre soy río

And I, as a man, am the river
