Lyrics of Nocturno - El Cuarteto de Nos

Nocturno (original)

En una noche amarilla
En la plaza blanca y verde
La mujer de ojos negros
Escribía sobre el polvo
Traído de un astro cercano
Extraños signos proféticos
Como si fuera un oráculo
Y que nadie la entendiera
Sin que ninguno la viera
Porque nadie la veía
A la mujer de ojos verdes, negros
Que ahora está en la azotea
De un viejo edificio sucio
Viejo edificio ceniza
Como el polvo de la luna
Donde ella escribe el futuro
La, la, la, la
La, la, la
Y la mujer de ojos rojos, negros
Está volando y te mira
A través de tu ventana
Y ríe desconsolada, descontrolada llora

(translation)

on a yellow night
In the white and green square
The black-eyed woman
She wrote on the dust
Brought from a nearby star
strange prophetic signs
As if it were an oracle
And that nobody understood her
without anyone seeing her
Because no one saw her
To the woman with green, black eyes
That she is now on the roof
Of a dirty old building
old cinder building
Like the dust of the moon
where she writes the future
The, the, the, the
The, the, the
And the woman with red, black eyes
She is flying and she looks at you
through your window
And she laughs heartbroken, uncontrollably cries
