Me Mueve el Aire (original)Me Mueve el Aire (translation)
Yo no sé lo que me pasaI cannot fathom whence this spell is cast upon me,
Pa la gente de mi casaTo the eyes within my household,
Que me he echao a perderI am the garden left untended, gone to seed.
Yo no sé lo que me pasaI cannot fathom whence this spell is cast upon me,
Pa la gente de mi casaTo the eyes within my household,
Que me he echao a perderI am the garden left untended, gone to seed.
Por lo visto lo que hagoSo it seems that all I fashion
Es toíto lo contrarioIs the mirror’s opposite,
De lo que debiera hacer…A shadow play of what I ought to be…
Cuando voy a los reunionesWhen I drift to gatherings
De fiambreras de coloresWhere colored tins parade like paper lanterns,
Suscito la compasiónI rouse the tender ache of pity
Y entre charlas de recetas mis amigas me comentanAnd between simmering tales of sauces, my friends remark—
Que se me pasa el arrozMy chance, like rice, grows overdone and wasted.
Que si guapa, que si listaThough fair, though bright, they claim—
Que me voy a poner muy vistaI shall be worn thin as a coin passed hand to hand.
Cuándo voy a entrar en razónWhen will wisdom take me by the wrist?
Pero no saben que yoYet they know not that I
Soy suspiro que en el aire va flotandoAm a sigh loosed to wander in the currents of air,
Que se escapa de las manosEscaping fingers, slipping through the mesh of hands,
Y a la suerte de los vientosAnd to the lot the winds decree
Voy navegandoI drift, a vessel on invisible seas.
A mí me mueve el aireAir is the unseen harpist who sets me in motion,
El aire me mueve a míIt is air that leads my dance.
No me merece la penaBlessings weigh nothing to me,
Que por santa ni buenaNeither for sanctity nor for virtue
Se me dé la bendiciónDo I crave the laying on of hands.
Hago lo que se me antojaI yield to the whim that beckons in the moment;
Y me aburro si me tocan siempre la misma canciónWeariness coils in me if I am fed the same old tune.
Que si hago, si no hagoShould I act, should I refrain—
Que si entro, que si salgoShould I enter, should I leave—
Siempre el mismo culebrónIt is the same old tale, wound round and round.
Pero no saben que yoYet they know not that I
Soy suspiro que en el aire va flotandoAm a sigh loosed to wander in the currents of air,
Que se escapa de las manosEscaping fingers, slipping through the mesh of hands,
Y a la suerte de los vientos voy navegandoAnd at the mercy of the wind’s design, I voyage on.
A mí me mueve el aire, el aire me mueve a míThe air stirs me, the air is my consort and my guide,
A mí, a mí, a mí me mueve el aireIt is air—air—air that moves me.
Cuando voy falta de amoresWhen love’s well runs shallow and dry
Lanzo a discreción un guiñoI let fly a wink, as one tosses a coin into the unknown,
Pongo boca de piñónShape my lips like a promise, small and almond-sweet,
Y me sobran los cariñosAnd warmth overflows, too much for a single palm.
No le temo al rencorI do not tremble at the taste of spite,
Ni a la envidiaNor at envy’s ice,
Ni al temorNor at fear’s pale shadow,
Ni a las ganas de dejar de ser quien soyNor at the urge to cease becoming what I am.
¡Que me dejen a mi aire, que yo sé por dónde voy!Let me follow my own breath, for the paths are clear before me!
¡Que me dejen a mi aire, que yo sé por dónde voy!Let me follow my own breath, for the paths are clear before me!
