Niebla

or; song in Aeolian mode, inverted (in Spanish)

Si hubiera decidido escaparme de tu amor
Yo pudiera recibido un montón menos dolor

Puedo ver las golondrinas, el rocío y el sol

Si acaso tú me hablas, cerraré mi corazón
Porque me cansan tus miradas . . . llego harto de este son

Puedo ver las golondrinas, el rocío y el sol

Siento ciego en la niebla de esta tonta confusión
El claro cielo me fascina - ya he perdido la razón
¡Qué perdición!

Puedo ver las golondrinas, el rocío y el sol

something about sun, love and gondolas?


The line is actually "I can see the sparrows, the dew, and the sun" . . . close though!

Thanks both for at least taking a look. I don't expect a lot of response to this baby, because most of the people here won't understand . . .

Don't speak the language either. I'm going to have to take lessons soon enough though. Glad there's an expert 'on my doorstep'!

You'd better remember a bit, man . . .

You know it, Donna! Think of me like a free tutor!

ok, so I copied your text into a translator, and it completely fouled up the poetry, but still I could sense this was a poem of longing, and even through the lousy translation, there was something good in there!
