Un Rayo De Luz Lyrics Translation – Silvana Estrada
Silvana Estrada Beverido describes an empty room warmed only by a single ray of light. The poet repeatedly asks to have her friends returned, mixing this plea with big questions about life’s fragility. She wonders ‘how beautiful must death truly be’ (¿Cómo será de hermosa la muerte), since no one comes back to tell the tale.
Un rayo de luz entrando a un cuarto vacíoA single ray of light entering an empty room,
Devuélvanme a mis amigosgive me back my friends.
El frío del sol ya no me arranca del fríoThe sun’s cold touch can’t pull me from this chill,
Devuélvanme a mis amigosgive me back my friends.
¿Cómo será de hermosa la muerteHow beautiful must death truly be,
Que nadie ha vuelto de allá?since no one has ever returned?
¿Cómo será de frágil la suerteHow fragile must our luck be,
Que siempre elegimos amar?that we always choose to love?
Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ahAh-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah,
Ah, ah-ahah, ah-ah,
Ahah.
La noche, al llegar, confunde sueño y olvidoWhen night arrives, it blurs the lines between dreams and forgetting,
Devuélvanme a mis amigosgive me back my friends.
La forma del mar se envuelve toda en suspirosThe very shape of the sea is wrapped in sighs,
Devuélvanme a mis amigosgive me back my friends.
¿Cómo será de hermosa la muerteHow beautiful must death truly be,
Que nadie ha vuelto de allá?since no one has ever returned?
¿Cómo será de frágil la suerteHow fragile must our luck be,
Que siempre volvemos a amar?that we always come back to love?
¿Cómo será de hermosa la muerteHow beautiful must death truly be,
Que nadie ha vuelto de allá?since no one has ever returned?
¿Cómo será de frágil la suerteHow fragile must our luck be,
Que solo nos queda llora-a-a-a-ar?that we’re only left with our tea-ea-ea-ea-ears?
Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ahAh-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah,
Ah-ah-ah-ah, ahah-ah-ah-ah, ah,
Ah, ah-ahah, ah-ah,
Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ahah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah,
Ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ahah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah,
Ah-ah, ah-ahah-ah, ah-ah,
Ah-ahah-ah.
