Translation of the song lyrics Querida - Sandro

Querida (original)

Mira como está de alto ese árbol
Que plantamos tiempo atrás
Recuerdo que feliz estaba
Mientras tú me asegurabas: «crecerá»
Era apenas una rama tierna
Frágil, tan pequeña como tú
Ella fue creciendo fuerte
Y hoy está de pie viviendo, más no tú
Al mirarlo te recuerdo, más lo pienso
Y no comprendo porque así
Es que los ángeles del cielo
Te llevaron de mi lado, sin volver
Si toda vida fue tu vida
Si eras luz que encendía mi existir
Ya todos son recuerdos tristes
Que tan sólo borrarías tú aquí
Querida, te extraño y no sé vivir
Sin ti a mi lado, yo quiero morir
Era apenas una rama tierna
Frágil, tan pequeña como tú
Ella fue creciendo fuerte
Y hoy está de pie viviendo, más no tú
Al mirarlo te recuerdo, más lo pienso
Y no comprendo porque así
Es que los ángeles del cielo
Te llevaron de mi lado, sin volver
Querida, te extraño y no sé vivir
Sin ti a mi lado, yo quiero morir
Era apenas una rama tierna
Frágil, tan pequeña como tú
Ella fue creciendo fuerte
Y hoy está de pie viviendo, más no tú
Al mirarlo te recuerdo, más lo pienso
Y no comprendo porque así…

Querida (translation)

Look how tall that tree is
that we planted long ago
I remember how happy I was
While you assured me: "it will grow"
It was just a tender branch
Fragile, as small as you
She was growing strong
And today she is standing up living, but not you
When I look at it I remember you, the more I think about it
And I don't understand why so
It is that the angels of heaven
They took you from my side, without coming back
If all life was your life
If you were light that lit my existence
They are all sad memories
That you would only erase here
Darling, I miss you and I don't know how to live
Without you by my side, I want to die
It was just a tender branch
Fragile, as small as you
She was growing strong
And today she is standing up living, but not you
When I look at it I remember you, the more I think about it
And I don't understand why so
It is that the angels of heaven
They took you from my side, without coming back
Darling, I miss you and I don't know how to live
Without you by my side, I want to die
It was just a tender branch
Fragile, as small as you
She was growing strong
And today she is standing up living, but not you
When I look at it I remember you, the more I think about it
And I don't understand why so...
