| Yo vivo para ti, para ti, para ti | My life is measured out for you, for you, for you, |
| Pensando solo en ti, solo en ti, solo en ti | My thoughts, like bees, spiral to you, only you, always you, |
| Rebuscándote no vez | I hunt for your shadow among faces unseen, |
| Me he dejado de querer | And have abandoned the shelter of self-love, |
| Yo me arriesgo para ti, para ti, para ti | I wager my fate on you, on you, on you, |
| Nada puede ser sin ti, yo sin ti, yo sin ti | Nothing in this world exists without your breath; without you, I am mist, |
| Eres mi razón de ser | You are the axis on which my being spins, |
| Fantasía de mi edén | Vision of Eden in my drought-stricken mind, |
| Quiéreme te lo ruego | Love me—I implore as thirst implores the sky, |
| Eres tú la raíz de mi fuego | You are the root feeding fire beneath my ribs, |
| Para mí no hay otro deseo | No other longing breathes inside my marrow |
| Que besar tu piel de terciopelo | But to taste the velvet dusk of your skin, |
| Yo sé mi pasión te desborda | I know my passion floods your quiet shores, |
| Pero tú mirar me provoca | Yet the flame of your gaze unsettles my peace, |
| Estalla esto que yo desconozco | Some wildness bursts from caverns I have never known, |
| Eres tú mi círculo vicioso | You are the circle where my fever returns again, |
| Me retiro para ti, para ti, para ti | I withdraw from the world, for you, for you, for you, |
| Dedicando mi existir, mi existir, mi existir | Consecrating each thread of my existence to you, to you, to you, |
| Yo te sedo mi poder | I relinquish my strength to your gentle command, |
| Hazme una con tu ser | Make me a single chord entwined with your soul, |
| Me regreso para ti, para ti, para ti | I retrace my path for you, for you, for you, |
| No me puedo ver si ti, yo sin ti, yo sin ti | Without you, I am a mirror drained of reflection; without you, only absence remains, |
| Veo tus ojos detener los latidos de mi piel | Your eyes arrest the pulse that runs beneath my skin, |
| Quiéreme te lo ruego | Love me—I plead as winter pleads for dawn, |
| Eres tú la raíz de mi fuego | You are the root drawing flame from my longing, |
| Para mí no hay otro deseo | No other yearning troubles my sleep |
| Que besar tu piel de terciopelo | But to taste the velvet hush of your skin, |
| Yo se mi pasión te desborda | I know my passion overspills your name, |
| Pero tú mirar me provoca | And the depth in your eyes sets my blood alight, |
| Estalla esto que yo desconozco | Some unnameable fire detonates in silence, |
| Eres tú mi círculo vicioso | You are the orbit I cannot escape, |
| Quiéreme te lo ruego | Love me—my supplication, |
| Eres tú la raíz de mi fuego | You are the root feeding fire beneath my ribs, |
| Para mí no hay otro deseo | No other longing breathes inside my marrow |
| Que besar tu piel de terciopelo | But to taste the velvet dusk of your skin |
