Altar Particular [English translation]

My love, who today asks me to turn off the lights when we go to bed

And who put my fragile heart on the cross

Of his hurtful private altar

I don't know, your absence has caused me chaos

In today's darkness I feel

That the time for healing has made sadness normal

So, you be careful with my heart

Don't let it be so lonely

Embarrassed for coming home alone

After all that is confusing has already made you smile

You give me back what you took from here

That my chest will be opened and the knots undone

If finally you decide to change

Remove my poor heart from the altar

Give it back to me, as it's proper

Or maybe say that you decided to care for it

Take it off the cross and canonize it

I say, do as you prefer

Your quay must be somewhere like that

As far as I could see from me

Where you anchored your flowered sailboat

And that's it, life passes in this emptiness

I have everything floating on the river

Waiting for the answer I call love

I have everything floating on the river

Waiting for the answer I call love

I have everything floating on the river

Waiting for the answer
