Besos en mis sueños

Language: Spanish (Español)

Our translations: ENG

El día que me besaste
en tu promesa de amor,
sentí la dicha que le ofrecías
a mi desolación.

Sueño que me besas todavía
sueño que me besas como ayer
y que la dulzura de tus besos
deja en mi ser aroma suave de placer.

Nuestros labios nunca han de volver
a juntarse en éxtasis de amor
y bien sé que nunca he de sentir
tu corazón junto a mi pecho palpitar de amor.

Kisses in my dreams

Language: English after the Spanish (Español)

The day you kissed me
with your promise of love,
I felt that you were offering
desolation to me. 

I dream that you kiss me, yet dream
that you kiss me as if it was yesterday,
and the sweetness of your kiss
left in my being, the soft scent of pleasure.

Our lips will never again
be together in the  ecstasy of love
and I know that I'll never feel your
heart beating with love in my breast.
