Translation

Esos tus ojos negros

Those black eyes of yours

Que me afligen martirio

That afflict me, martyrdom

Por la bendita gracia

By the blessed grace

De tu piedad cerena

Of your serene mercy


Van llevándose toda

They take away all

La flor de mis delirios

The flower of my delusions

Y llenándome el alma

And fill my soul

De una infinita pena

With an infinite sorrow


Esos tus ojos negros

Those black eyes of yours

Oh misterio del cielo

Oh mystery of heaven

La flor y la postrera

The first and last flower

De un crepúsculo santo

Of a holy twilight


Cada vez que los miro

Every time I look at them

Resucita un consuelo

A consolation resurrects

Y una esperanza nace

And hope is born

Después de sufrir tanto

After enduring so much


Sin embargo tus ojos

However, your eyes

Esquivos y hechiceros

Elusive and bewitching

Para mi suplicante

To my supplicant

Soledad pensativa

Thoughtful solitude


Tienen la lontananza

They have the farness

De todos los luceros

Of all the stars

Que peregrinos pueblan

That pilgrims populate

La soledad de arriba

The solitude above


Tus miradas me duelen

Your gazes hurt me

Con dolor de dulzura

With a pain of sweetness

Parece que es inútil

It seems futile

Resistir su fiereza

To resist their fierceness


La plegaria del alma

The prayer of the soul

Se ha tornado más pura

Has become purer

Pero más rebozante

But more overflowing

De una inmensa tristeza

With immense sadness
