Lorena [English translation]

How good is Lorena when she wants

but it’s so hard to see her smile.

Lorena is all or none

or maybe, some, for me.

Don’t forget to tell her, if someday

you pass by the door of Lorena’s house,

that I’m still alive and I never forgot to remember.

Not all my sins are deadly sins

nor a laurel wreath.

And you’d never repent if you were good.

Lorena does it for you.

One has to be a man to forget a woman

if no one is her equal.

Skinny woman, don’t stab me

because lovesickness hurts me more.

I never told you, but I want to

tear out and eat your heart.

She has so many sins,

with good reason, Lorena earned her place

of angst and alcohol.

Lorena pities no one;

no one owes Lorena any favors.

Since girlhood, people taught Lorena

that in life, never is nothing for love.

Don’t forget to tell her, if someday

you pass by the door of Lorena’s house,

that I’m still alive and I never forgot to remember.

I have Lorena in my veins,

she got herself into my blood.

It’s like any drug,

it’s necessity, it’s love.

Below the moon, I walk

dodging puddles, ponds, rivers, and seas.

And I never again want to see you sad, alone.

Lorena isn’t one of those who’s pitied.

Don’t let your angel abandon you.

Hate doesn’t exist, memory doesn’t exist.

Today is today, and will always be today.

We could reach infinity, lost

between Lorena’s hands.

We want to tell you that we see you

in the sun, on the table, in the reflection.

Don’t let your angel abandon you,

Lorena, it’s easier to fly with him.
