Want to help me Translate an Enrique Iglesias song?
I tried to translate the song, Lloro por Ti. I know there are several areas where I did a literal translation, completely missing expressions and/or the more poetic meaning. I would love if someone could tell me what the lyrics are "expressing" more than just the translation of words. This was a fun activity to practice my Spanish! Thanks for helping!
Te busque en el infinito
I looked for you in infinity
Y en las huellas de tus labios
and in the footprints of your lips
En uno de tus cigarrillos
In one of your cigarettes
Esperando hasta el cansancio
I am waiting until I’m exhasted
Y tu me has echado al olvido
And you make me oblivious
Y la suerte se me escapa en un suspiro
And I am lucky to escape in a sigh
Y tu te me vas de las manos
And you leave me in your hands
Y la vida se me rompe en mil pedazos
And my life is broken in a thousand peices
Y yo
And I…
Lloro por ti, lloro por ti
I cry for you, I cry for you
Soando que lo nuestro tiene algo remedio
I am dreaming that we have some remedy
Lloro por ti
I cry for you
Es que no hay forma de olvidarme de tus besos
There is no way I can forget your kisses
Porque no dejo de pensar cunto te quiero
Because I should not think about how much I love you
Lloro por ti
I cry for you
Mariposa ilusionada
Nervous Butterflies
Con la luna reflejada en tu mirada
With the moon reflecting in your image
Te perdi en un laberinto
I am lost by you in your maze
Fu cautivo de tu amor, tu prisionero
I was a captive of your love, a prisoner
Y tu has llenado el vacio
You have filled what was empty
Un rincon donde tu boca fue mi alivio
A corner where your mouth was my relief
Y es que no encuentro una salida
And I can not find a way out
Una forma de curar estas heridas
A way to cure these wounds
Lloro por ti
I cry for you
