Cajón de Fina Madera
Luis Alberto PosadaLyrics
Translation
Solo cuando me vaya descansaré
Only when I go to rest will I find peace
De este mundo tortuoso que tanto aflige
In this tortuous world that so afflicts
Ya no me va importar que hayan cicatrices
I won't care anymore about the scars
Pues para donde voy ya no habrá dolor
Because where I'm going, there will be no more pain
Solo me llevaré lo que ya viví
I will only take what I have already lived
Ya no tiene importancia lo que aquí queda
What remains here is no longer important
Solo en aquel cajón de fina madera
Only in that box of fine wood
Reposarán mis sueños y lo que fui
Will rest my dreams and what I was
Yo que por tantos años me había esforzado
I, who for so many years had strived
Había sufrido y trabajado para alcanzar aquel ideal
Had suffered and worked to achieve that ideal
Descubro con tristeza que ha terminado
I discover with sadness that it's over
Que el tiempo ahora se me ha acabado y que ya, todo llega al final
That time has now run out and that everything comes to an end
Yo que por tantos años me había esforzado
I, who for so many years had strived
Había sufrido y trabajado para alcanzar aquel ideal

Descubro con tristeza que ha terminado

Que el tiempo ahora se me ha acabado y que ya, todo llega al final
