Lyrics of Al Alba - Luis Eduardo Aute

Al Alba (original)

Si te dijera, amor mio,
Que temo a la madrugada…
No s qu estrellas son stas
Que hieren como amenazas,
Ni s que sangra la luna
Al filo de su guadaa.
Presiento que, tras la noche,
Vendra la noche mas larga.
Quiero que no me abandones,
Amor mio, al alba.
Al alba, al alba, al alba, al alba.
Los hijos que no tuvimos
Se esconden en las cloacas,
Comen las ultimas flores,
Parece que adivinaran
Que el dia que se avecina
Viene con hambre atrasada.
Presiento que, tras la noche,
Vendra la noche mas larga.
Quiero que no me abandones,
Amor mio, al alba.
Al alba…
Miles de buitres callados
Van extendiendo sus alas.
No te destroza, amor mio,
Esta silenciosa danza?
Maldito baile de muertos,
Plvora de la maana.
Presiento que, tras la noche,
Vendra la noche mas larga.
Quiero que no me abandones,
Amor mio, al alba.
Al alba…

(translation)

If I told you, my love,
I fear the morning...
I don't know what stars these are
That hurt like threats,
I don't even know that the moon bleeds
At the edge of his scythe of her.
I feel that, after the night,
The longest night will come.
I want you not to abandon me,
My love, at dawn.
At dawn, at dawn, at dawn, at dawn.
The children we didn't have
They hide in the sewers,
They eat the last flowers,
They seem to guess
That the day that is coming
He comes hungry late.
I feel that, after the night,
The longest night will come.
I want you not to abandon me,
My love, at dawn.
At dawn…
Thousands of silent vultures
They spread their wings.
It does not destroy you, my love,
This silent dance?
Damn dance of the dead,
Gunpowder in the morning.
I feel that, after the night,
The longest night will come.
I want you not to abandon me,
My love, at dawn.
At dawn…
