Translation of the song lyrics Cerca De La Revolucion - Charly García

Cerca De La Revolucion (original)

Porque no vienes hasta mi?,
Porque no puedo amarte?,
Porque no vienes hasta mi?
Porque no cambias como el sol?,
Porque eres tan distante?,
Porque no cambiar como el sol?
Me siento solo y confundido a la vez,
Los analistas no podran entender,
Ya no se bien que decir, ya no se mas que hacer,
Todo el mundo loco y yo sin poderte ver.
Pero si insisto,
Yo se muy bien: te conseguire,
Pero si insisto,
Yo se muy bien: te conseguire.
Cerca de la revolucion,
El pueblo pide sangre,
Cerca de la revolucion
Yo estoy cantando esta cancion
Que alguna vez fue hambre.
Y si manana es como ayer, otra vez,
Lo que fue hermoso sera horrible despues;
No, es solo una cuestion de elecciones,
No elegi este mundo pero aprendi a querer.
Si estas palabras te pudieran dar fe,
Si esta armonia te ayudara a querer,
Yo seria tan feliz, tan feliz en el mundo
Que moriria arrodillado a tus pies.

(translation)

Why don't you come to me?
Why can't I love you?
Why don't you come to me?
Why don't you change like the sun?
Why are you so distant?
Why not change like the sun?
I feel alone and confused at the same time,
Analysts could not understand,
I no longer know what to say, I no longer know what to do,
Everyone crazy and me without being able to see you.
But if I insist
I know very well: I will get you,
But if I insist
I know very well: I will get you.
Close to the revolution
The people ask for blood
close to the revolution
I am singing this song
That was once hungry.
And if tomorrow is like yesterday, again,
What was beautiful will be horrible afterwards;
No, it's just a question of elections,
I did not choose this world but I learned to love.
If these words could give you faith,
If this harmony helped you to love,
I would be so happy, so happy in the world
That I would die kneeling at your feet.
