Spanish Text:
Un día llegarás;
el amor nos espera.
Y me dirás:
Amada, ya llegó la primavera.
Un día me amarás.
Estarás de mi pecho tan cercano,
que no sabré si el fuego que me abraza
es de tu corazón o del verano.
Un día me tendrás.
Escucharemos mudos
latir nuestras arterias
y sollozar los árboles desnudos.
Un día. Cualquier día.
Breve y eterno,
el amor es el mismo en primavera,
en verano, en otoño y en invierno.
Translation:
One day you will arrive;
love awaits us.
And you will tell me:
Beloved, spring has arrived.
One day you will love me.
You will be so close to my chest,
I won't know if the fire that embraces me
It is from your heart or from the summer.
One day you will have me.
We will listen silently
our arteries throbbing
and the barren trees sobbing.
One day. Any day.
Brief and eternal,
love is the same in spring,
in summer, in autumn and in winter.
