Translation of the song lyrics De Qué Callada Manera - Pablo Milanés

De Qué Callada Manera (original)

De qu callada manera
Se me adentra usted sonriendo
Como si fuera la primavera
Yo muriendo
Y de qu modo sutil
Me derram en la camisa
Todas las flores de abril
Quin le dijo que yo era
Risa siempre, nunca llanto?
Como si fuera la primavera
No soy tanto!
En cambio, qu espiritual
Que usted me brinde una rosa
De su rosal principal
De qu callada manera
Se me adentra usted sonriendo
Como si fuera la primavera
Yo muriendo
Yo muriendo

De Qué Callada Manera (translation)

in what a quiet way
You enter me smiling
as if it were spring
me dying
And how subtly
I spilled on my shirt
all the flowers of april
Who told him that I was
Laugh always, never cry?
as if it were spring
I'm not that much!
Instead, how spiritual
that you give me a rose
From its main rosebush
in what a quiet way
You enter me smiling
as if it were spring
me dying
me dying
