Translation

Cuánto se puede, quiero saber

How much can be done, I want to know

quien tiene menos para comer,

who has less to eat,

y te convido y pido que no tenga sed..

and I invite you and ask that you not be thirsty...

la emoción mece, crece y te quiero ver

the emotion sways, grows, and I want to see you


Puede que te quiera secuestrar y

Maybe I want to kidnap you and

después te vaya a torturar no sé,

then maybe I'll torture you, I don't know,

pero solo quiero contemplar

but I just want to contemplate

cuántas de tus pecas puedo yo entender

how many of your freckles I can understand

porque ya no puedo esperar

because I can't wait anymore

quiero que te vengas a tomar un té

I want you to come have tea

y entre todo este bienestar

and amid all this well-being

me acuerdo que ya despegué los pies...

I remember that I've already taken my feet off the ground...


Me encimo, afino, termino y descubro

I climb, refine, finish, and discover

que el cuento, que cuento, no siento

that the story, that I tell, I don't feel

que quiera ser...

that it wants to be...

y el humo consumo que imaginé...

and I consume the smoke that I imagined...

enciendo y entiendo que no te conozco bien...

I light up and understand that I don't know you well...


Puede que te quiera secuestrar y después te vaya a torturar no sé

Maybe I want to kidnap you and then maybe I'll torture you, I don't know

pero solo quiero contemplar cuántas de

but I just want to contemplate how many of

tus pecas puedo yo entender...

Porque ya no puedo esperar, quiero que

Because I can't wait anymore, I want you to

te vengas a tomar café....

come have coffee...

y entre todo este bienestar me acuerdo

and amid all this well-being, I remember

que ya despegué los pies...

that I've already taken my feet off the ground...
