Tania Libertad "Alfonsina y el mar" lyrics

Translation to:enitjatr

Alfonsina y el mar

Por la blanda arena que lame el marSu pequeña huella no vuelve másUn sendero solo de pena y silencioLlegó hasta el agua profundaUn sendero solo de penas mudasLlegó hasta la espuma

Sabe Dios qué angustia te acompañóQué dolores viejos calló tu voz,Para recostarte arrullada en el cantoDe las caracolas marinas.La canción que canta en el fondo oscuro del marLa caracola

Te vas Alfonsina con tu soledad,¿Qué poemas nuevos fuiste a buscar?Una voz antigua de viento y de salTe requiebra el almaY te está llevandoY te vas, hacia allá como en sueñosDormida, Alfonsina, vestida de mar

Cinco sirenitas te llevaránPor caminos de algas y de coralY fosforescentes caballos marinos haránUna ronda a tu lado.Y los habitantes del aguaVan a jugar pronto a tu lado

Bájame la lámpara un poco másDéjame que duerma, nodriza, en pazY si llama él no le digas que estoyDile que Alfonsina no vuelveY si llama él no le digas nunca que estoyDi que me he ido

Te vas Alfonsina con tu soledad,¿Qué poemas nuevos fuiste a buscar?Una voz antigua de viento y de salTe requiebra el almaY te está llevandoY te vas, hacia allá como en sueñosDormida, Alfonsina, vestida de mar

Alfonsina and the sea

Across the soft sand that the waves lickHer small footprints are not coming back anymoreOnly one path made of sorrow and silenceReached the deep waterOnly one path made of untold sorrowsReached the foam

Only God knows about the anguish that accompanied youAnd about the old pains your voice never toldThat caused you to go to sleep, lulled by the songOf the seashellsThe song sung in the depths of the dark sea byThe seashell

You're going away, AlfonsinaAlong with your lonelinessWhat kind of new poems did you go looking for?An ancient voice made of wind and saltIs shattering your soul and taking you awayAnd you go there, like in a dreamAsleep, Alfonsina, dressed with the sea

Five little mermaids will escort youThrough paths made of seaweed and coralsAnd phosphorescent sea horses will singA round, by your sideAnd the aquatic dwellersWill soon play by your side

Dim the light of the lamp a bit for meLet me sleep in peace, nurse [1]And if he calls don't tell him I'm hereTell him that Alfonsina is not coming backAnd if he calls never tell him I'm hereTell him that I have left

You're going away, AlfonsinaAlong with your lonelinessWhat kind of new poems did you go looking for?An ancient voice made of wind and saltIs shattering your soul and taking you awayAnd you go there, like in a dreamAsleep, Alfonsina, dressed with the sea
