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

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

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

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
