Translation

Decía que tenía el corazón alicatao hasta el techo

He said he had his heart tiled up to the ceiling

Que a ver si no podía hacerle yo una cenefa a besos

Asking if I couldn't make him a border of kisses

Pa llenar de porvenir los bolsillos del mandil

To fill the pockets of the apron with future

Y colgar un recuerdo de cada azulejo

And hang a memory from each tile


Y es que ná le da más asco que aguantar como un peñasco

And nothing disgusts him more than enduring like a rock

A que pase el invierno

Waiting for winter to pass

Que le diga que ya nos veremos

Telling him that we'll see each other later

Que ha vivido en un silbido

That he has lived in a whistle

Orgullosa de haber sido una yegua sin freno

Proud of having been an unrestrained mare

Desgastada de andar por el suelo

Worn out from walking on the ground


Le dije que a la noche por los poros me salían mares

I told him that at night seas come out of my pores

Soñando que me hablaba y me agarraba a sus cuerdas vocales

Dreaming that he spoke to me and clung to his vocal cords

Que no hay quien pueda dormir escuchando mi latir

That no one can sleep hearing my heartbeat

Que parece que está masticando cristales

That it seems like I'm chewing on crystals


Tengo un gato en las entrañas, un tembleque en las pestañas

I have a cat in my guts, a trembling in my eyelashes

Y muy poco tiempo

And very little time

Si me dice que ya nos veremos

If he says we'll see each other later

Voy rompiendo las persianas pa dejar por mi ventana

I'm breaking the blinds to let through my window

El camino abierto

The open path

Si se cansa de andar por el suelo

If he gets tired of walking on the ground


Pondremos el mantel, tu quédate a mi lado

We'll set the table, you stay by my side

A comernos al amanecer lo que quieran las manos

To eat at dawn whatever the hands want

Y de postre un sol maldito que termine de volverme loco

And for dessert, a cursed sun that finishes driving me crazy

Que ya sabes que la luna a mí siempre me sabe a poco

Because you know that the moon always tastes too little to me
