I can write the saddest verses tonight
Write, for example, "The night is full of stars,
twinkling blue, in the distance."
The night wind spins in the sky and sings.
I can write the saddest verses tonight.
I loved her, and sometimes she loved me too.
On nights like this I held her in my arms.
I kissed her so many times beneath the infinite sky.
She loved me, at times I loved her too.
How not to have loved her great still eyes.
I can write the saddest verses tonight.
To think that I don't have her. To feel that I have lost her.
To hear the immense night, more immense without her.
And the verse falls onto my soul like dew onto grass.
only the first half. I love the original Spanish for the last two stanzas:
Puedo escribir los versos más tristes esta noche.
Pensar que no la tengo. Sentir que la he perdido.Oir la noche inmensa, más inmensa sin ella.
Y el verso cae al alma como al pasto el rocío.
