Beso de fuego [English translation]

I kiss your lips

and my body trembles—

sensual kisses

and lying lips.

And I who burn

in the hell of your mouth

surrender thus defeated

by your kiss of fire.

I am lost

in the mystery of your eyes

that reproach me

and glare at me with anger.

Like a torch,

it is my soul

that awaits humbly

your kiss of fire.

If I could

get away from you,

get you out of my life,

erase you from my eyes—

but I cannot—

your kisses drug me

and I am enslaved

with neither power nor will.

Kiss of love—

kiss of love.

Give me your lips

like a compassionate loan.

Kiss me now

so that tomorrow anew

I will passionately

taste your lips.

Grant my wish

of your kiss of fire.

If I could

get away from you,

get you out of my life,

erase you from my eyes—

but I cannot—

your kisses drug me

and I am enslaved

with neither power nor will.

Kiss of love—

kiss of love.

Give me your lips

like a compassionate loan.

Kiss me now

so that tomorrow anew

I will passionately

taste your lips.

Grant my wish

of your kiss of fire.
