mi breve juventud Lyrics Translation (from “VERANO SAUDADE”)
Judeline sings, ‘I’m going to paint it all with light before my youth comes to an end.’ The lyrics mix vivid scenes like swimming from Menorca to Peru and drinking from fallen coconuts. The vocalist captures the urgency of making the most of youth while it lasts.
Otra vez me escapo de tu habitaciónOnce again, I’m sneaking out of your room
Esta vez me voy a ver nacer el SolThis time, I’m going to watch the sunrise
Entiéndeme, es mi primera vez teniendo 22Just understand, it’s my first time being twenty-two
Voy a bajarte una estrellaI’m gonna bring a star down for you
Voy a pintarlo todito de luzI’m going to paint it all with light
Antes de terminar mi juventudBefore my youth comes to an end
Voy a bañarme en el aguaI’m gonna bathe in the water,
Voy a nadar de Menorca a PerúAnd swim all the way from Menorca to Peru
Antes de terminar mi juventudBefore my youth is through
Si marcho de tu lugarIf I leave your place,
Ve y busca cerca del marGo and look near the sea,
Es justamente donde quiero estarSince that’s exactly where I want to be
Si hay agua si el Sol me daIf there’s water and the sun hits me,
No hay mucho que conversarThere’s not much left to say,
Es justamente donde quiero estarIt’s exactly where I want to be
Llueve y la brisa me peinaIt rains and the breeze combs my hair
Y beberé del coco que se cayóAnd I’ll drink from the coconut that fell,
Se queda dormido y sueñaHe falls asleep and dreams,
Yo soy el pajarito que le cantóI’m the little bird that sang to him
Yo, come like a shooting starI come like a shooting star
