Mil años

Por las calles vacias de la ciudad, camina con su soledad
y sabe Dios qué angustias la acompañarán?

Y se va triste con su soledad, vestida de blanco como las palomas ella se ve volar
Bájale la luna y no volvera jamas, ella no regresara
Y se va triste con su soledad con sus estrellitas de mar, a dónde la llevarán?

Gerarldina aguanta un poco mas, ojitos blandos como la espuma del mar
dejame juntar tus lagrimitas de sal para que los pecesitos puedan nadar

Por las calles vacias de la ciudad, lleva pena en el alma
que dolores sus labios callaran?
Que memorias viejas habra dejado atrás?
quiere dormir y no despertar jamás con los angelitos quiere soñar

Mil años soñara a la orrila del mar
Empiezas tu jornada desde la gran ciudad, qué esperas encontrar?

I can hear your spirit calling my name
The clay of my land invoking my name
My body is broken and my soul is gone

My principe Azteca resurrect from the dead
Heal my wounds to fight again
I only have my arrow and my bow
And like a hunter I will rescue my soul

Mi principe Azteca white men have come from a foreign land
They murdered our sisters and sons –believing we have no souls

They took our land
They took our gold
They took our freedom
Destroyed our souls in the altar of our gods

My principe Azteca kiss me with your lips of immortality
And with my bow and arrow i will aim straight to their hearts
becuase oh God they deserve to die

My principe Azteca sacrifice my heart
But please don’t let them suffer anymore
Let me rescue their souls.

the pen and the paper are lovers
the pen whispers and the paper remembers
the paper wants to forget

The pen traces the forbidden heart  
the paper and the pen are lovers

there are traces of you all over me - tells the paper to the pen
How do you know what is to love somebody the way I love you?

and I am still working on this ... any suggestions?

How am I supposed to live this life?
I have lost the inspiration that kept me alive
The stars and the moon mourn for me

I cherish the starry nights
Laying down under their silver lights
Now, I only have dark and gloomy nights

Let no one know of my suffering- I said
That night I drove looking for comfort
I gazed at the firmament
What has become of me? – I asked
The world is cold and bitter
I can only feel the warmth of my tears.

Solitude
I wish I could no longer feel
In the sadness of my heart
I would find no pain

Pain has been my constant companion
My best friend and lover
Pain in my heart you always remain

Pain I have you tattooed on my skin
And in my sad eyes it never stops raining
I do not want to feel the bitter taste of your nectar

And hopefully you would vanish from the emptiness of my dreams
Where there is not even a meager living echo
In my dreams where there is only darkness
you will live as my faithful companion
friend and lover

Hopefully I’ll no longer feel your dry bitter taste
on my lips
I want to forget your opaque kisses my faithful companion
I wish I could drown in the ocean of my sadness

Tell me, why you don’t want to go from this emaciated body?
Where there is not a rainbow
Where all hope is gone
How to make them understand that here they will not find a lord’s prayer

Why don’t you pluck my heart at once
and as a desperate thief steal my memories,
the beautiful jewelry, that you are killing
Tear this heart apart but don’t let me suffer any more

Your voice is like a knife blade that penetrates to the bottom of my heart

And with this solitary life
Finally I give up
My love, hope, and gentleness are gone
Pain, will you give up today?

Soledad
Ojala que pudiera ya no sentir
En la tristeza de mi corazón
Quisiera ya no encontrarte dolor

Dolor que has sido mi fiel compañero
Mi mejor amigo y amante
Dolor siempre estás en mi corazón

Dolor te tengo tatuado en mi piel
Y en mis ojos tristes nunca para de llover
Ya no quiero sentir el sabor amargo de tu miel

Y ojala te esfumaras del vacío de mis sueños
Donde no habita ni siquiera un mísero eco
En mis sueños donde solo hay tinieblas
Vives tú mi fiel compañero
Amigo y amante

Ojala que ya no te sintiera en mis labios
Tu seco sabor a amargura
Fiel compañero como borrar tus besos opacos
Ojala pudiera ahogarte en el océano de mis tristeza

Dime, ¿Por qué no te quieres marchar de este cuerpo enflaquecido?
Donde no hay un arco iris
Donde toda ilusión ha desaparecido
Y como hacerles entender que aquí no encontraran un padre nuestro

¿Por qué de una vez no me arrancas el corazón?
Y como un ladrón desesperado róbate mis memorias
Hermosas joyas que estas matando
Arráncame la vida y el alma pero ya no me dejes sufrir más

Tu voz es como el filo de un cuchillo que penetra hasta el fondo de mi corazón

Y ahora desfavorecida por la vida
Finalmente me doy por vencida
Mi amor, esperanza y sutileza
Han desaparecido
Dolor, ¿ hoy te das por vencido?

So, how do you know?
How do you go about...?
How do you prevent a broken heart?
En las horas de soledad, sometimes you think you will never find someone like the one you just left...
and then, time goes on, because time heals those scars that are deep inside your soul.

Then, you swear it will never happen again,
and you build an armor
and have all this plan all this new tactics,
you will not fall again!
yet in seconds just with one smile
yes one stupid smile you fall all over again...
and you are vulnerable again
then you stand up asking why? How could this have happened to me again?...
now you have to wait again ...
but how do you know? how do you go about?

And  it is kind of funny that those memories were the best you had,
but it is kind of sad when you are torn down apart inside your heart.
How do you know? How do you go about?

Things get spoken, things get broken but
how do know? How do you go about from preventing a broken heart?
There is nothing better than a sweet smile and a warm kiss.
There is nothing better than looking in that person's eyes and the world stops turning...
but when all that magic is gone and you are back in reality .
How do you know? How do you go about?

How do you explain that to a young heart who has had their first kiss and first heartbreak?
How do say to an older heart who is is giving up who again lost someone he/she never really had?
Is it just the way it goes? falling and falling again until you find the one?

Tennyson once wrote "Tis better to have loved and lost / Than never to have loved at all." but is it really true?
Could it be just an excuse to justify it to your broken heart?
I imagine it would apply when you have lost someone through death and you have love the one.

You are the mirage to escape my world
When I have my life held by a thread
I pick up the pieces and look the mirage of your face

I close my eyes and the thought of you takes my breath away
and I look deep into your eyes and you make me smile
even when you are thousands of miles away
I hold the illusion of you even when I know I will never be with you
