Serenata para la tierra de uno [English translation]

Because it hurts if I stay,

But I'll die if I go.

For everything and despite it all, my love,

I want to live in you.

For your decency of life,

For your scandalous sun,

For your summer filled jasmines, my love

I want to live in you.

Because our childhood language,

Is a secret between us,

Because you mended,

The uprooting in my heart.

For your old rebellions,

And for the age of your pain,

For your endless hope, my love

I want to live in you.

To play the guitar for you,

To care for you in every flower,

And to hate all those who punish you, my love

I want to live in you.
