Vino añejo
Rubén Blades
Lyrics
Translation
No pasaras como las otras
You won't pass like the others
que mi espera visitaron
that my anticipation visited
se detuvieron un instante
they stopped for a moment
y siguieron su camino
and continued on their way
dejando solo como huella
leaving only as a trace
memorias de dolor
memories of pain
al usar mi corazón
using my heart
como un punto de partida
as a starting point
sin pensar en que mi amor
without thinking that my love
corre largo y sin mentiras.
runs long and without lies.
Mi ayer está lleno de historia
My yesterday is full of history
escrita en tantas despedidas
written in so many goodbyes
que el tiempo adquiere hasta la forma
that time takes on the form
de mil tristezas repetidas
of a thousand repeated sorrows
apareciste entre mi sombra
you appeared in my shadow
cual estrella en firmamento
like a star in the firmament
y me has hecho sentir dentro
and you have made me feel inside
que se cierran las heridas
that the wounds are closing
que causaron mis intentos
caused by my attempts
por creer en otras vidas.
to believe in other lives.
Quédate en mi
Stay with me
te ofrezco un alma
I offer you a soul
en decepciones concebida
conceived in disappointments
que con tu amor has transformado
that with your love you have transformed
en una casa de alegría
into a house of joy
amada quédate conmigo
beloved, stay with me
que esta vez sea diferente
may this time be different
ya no quiero continuar
I no longer want to continue
por las otras amargado
embittered by others
jamás merece perdón
never deserves forgiveness
el que nunca a perdonado.
the one who has never forgiven.
Noooooo pasaras he madurado
No, you won't pass, I have matured
en tu cuerpo y tus sentidos
in your body and your senses
tú, pedernal en mi tiniebla
you, flint in my darkness
yo, vino añejo te he ofrecido
I, aged wine, have offered you
te pido quédate conmigo
I ask you to stay with me
en esta curva del camino
in this curve of the road
ya no me duele el pasado
the past no longer hurts me
ni lamento lo perdido
nor do I lament what's lost
no me importa hacerme viejo
I don't care about growing old
si me hago viejo contigo.
if I grow old with you.

Tú pasaras
You will pass
por siempre te quedaras
you will forever stay
conmigo.
with me.
