Lyrics of Esta Cobardia - Chiquetete

Esta Cobardia (original)

No se da ni cuenta que cuando la miro
por no delatarme me guardo el suspiro,
que mi amor callado se enciende con verla
que diera la vida para poseerla.
No se da ni cuenta que brillan mis ojos
que tiemblo a su lado y hasta me sonrojo,
que ella es el motivo que mi amor despierta
que ella es mi delirio y no se da cuenta.
Esta cobardía de mi amor por ella
hace que la vea igual que a una estrella,
tan lejos, tan lejos de la realidad
que no espero nunca poderla alcanzar.
No se da ni cuenta que siempre ha tenido
los miles de besos que no me ha pedido,
en mis noches tristes desiertas de sueños
que en loco deseo me siento su dueño.
No se da ni cuenta que ya la he tomado
que ya ha sido mía sin haberla amado,
que es su alma fría la que me atormenta
que ve que me muero y no se da cuenta.
Esta cobardía de mi amor por ella
hace que la vea igual que a una estrella,
tan lejos, tan lejos de la realidad
que no espero nunca poderla alcanzar.

(translation)

She doesn't even realize that when I look at her
for not giving myself away I keep my sigh,
that my silent love lights up with seeing her
that she would give her life to possess her.
He doesn't even realize that my eyes shine
that I tremble next to her and I even blush,
that she is the reason that my love awakens
That she is my delirium and she doesn't realize it.
This cowardice of my love for her
makes me see her like a star
so far, so far from reality
that I never hope to be able to reach it.
She doesn't even realize that she has always had
the thousands of kisses that she has not asked me for,
in my sad nights deserted with dreams
that in crazy desire I feel her owner of her.
He doesn't even realize that I've already taken it
that she has already been mine without having loved her,
that it is her cold soul that torments me
that she sees that I'm dying and she doesn't realize it.
This cowardice of my love for her
makes me see her like a star
so far, so far from reality
that I never hope to be able to reach it.
