y si no fuera porque te fuiste
Y si no fuera porque te fuiste
porque de lejos silbas
y le ruchas a la memoria su contenido
nadie mueve los labios
si no estás
las llaves ciegas de la consciencia
resumen la nostalgia
y arman sus fieras los corazones más allá
alguien dice Petare
para que yo busque entre los rieles
y me tope con las formas de tu ausencia
alguien que anuncia tu partida
como si un golpe fiero
ya se que tu alma como un tren
no volverá a cruzar por esta isla.

And were it not that you left
because you whistle far away
and you gamble memory its content
nobody moves the lips
if you are not
the blind keys of consciousness
sum up the nostalgia
and the beasts assemble their hearts beyond
someone says Petare
so that I look between the rails
and I come across the forms of your absence
someone announces your departure
as if a fierce blow
because you whistle far away
and you gamble memory its content
nobody moves the lips
if you are not
the blind keys of consciousness
sum up the nostalgia
and the beasts assemble their hearts beyond
someone says Petare
so that I look between the rails
and I come across the forms of your absence
someone announces your departure
as if a fierce blow
already I know your soul like a train
will not cross this island once again.
