Español
Capullo de miel,
tu piel...
mintiendo tan mal
¿Por qué?
No ves que al final
de tanto jugar
tendrás que llorar
sin nada en tu almohada,
¡sin nada!...
Capullo de miel,
ya ves...
que triste es morir
¡sin fe!...
O acaso ya estás
cansada de amar
y de hundir tus sueños
en arena y cal.
Corre y ven...
a buscar tus cosas.
Las que ayer
fueron mariposas.
Corre y ven...
y quítate
el rouge y tu disfraz
para darme el beso
del azul regreso
—muñequita herida de amor—
Y otra vez amar
¡sin mirar atrás!...
English
Honey bud,
your skin...
lying so badly
why?
Don't you see that in the end
with all this playing around
you'll have to cry
with nothing on your pillow,
with nothing!
Honey bud,
now you see..
how sad it is to die
without faith!
Or perhaps you are already
tired of loving
and of sinking your dreams
in sand and lime.
Run and come...
to look for your things.
Those that yesterday
were butterflies.
Run and come...
and take off
the rouge and your mask
to give me the kiss
of blue return
-little doll hurt by love-
And to love again
without looking back!
