[English] Cuarteto de Nos - Habla tu espejo (Your mirror speaks)
This band in itself tends to have complicated Spanish lyrics, wich is why the translation is rather dense this time.
Recently I’ve been into Cuarteto de Nos, I think this is a band in Spanish really worth sharing! So most likely I’ll be translating more of them.
But as always, you can leave any song requests you have (as long as the translation is English-Spanish or viceversa).
Here’s the song and where the image comes from:
Translation:
Look at me when I talk to you, you know who I am
We already know eachother, and if you look for me I’m always there
For so long I’ve been a lonely witness
That I think up until this point I’m your only friend
Hanged on the wall of your room I await
I know that you won’t be honest with anyone else other than me
Because I don’t know how to lie, invent, pretend or fake
I say it how it is, and not what you want to hear
I see in your face the uproar that prevails in your head
I see when guilt surpasses your shame
I don’t guess, I see the love hidden in your pride
You look at me, but it is me who sees through you
I’m the only one that looks at you in the eyes
The only one who is with you, when you’re alone
The one that knows what’s like to be in your shoes
Look at me when I talk to you, your mirror speaks
I’m the only one that stands your stare without hesitation
I’m the only one who’s with you when everything’s over
The only one that sees, what you don’t want to show
The one that can calm your fury and rage
I’m the only one who will never reveal your secrets
I see you go, I hear you come, I know when you bring problems and when you go out looking for more
And when you’re not here I know you miss me
Because you’re in turbulent waters
And in turbulent waters you can’t see your reflection
I’m your body with no heart, your head without memory nor reasoning
Your veins without blood, your dry glands
Your skin with marks, but with its hollow stories
I’m the grimace of your spirit
I see in your mouth the words that you never said
I see in your eye bags the tiredness like a cyst
I see you worried with no one at your side
From a certain time and on, I haven’t seen you well or bad accompanied
I know that fall hates me because I don’t get nostalgic
The summer because I won’t feel its heat
Spring because I never fall in love
And winter because I’m much more colder than him
I’m the only one that stands your stare without hesitation
I’m the only one that’s with you when everything’s over
The only one that sees, what you don’t want to show
The one that can calm your fury and rage
I’m the only one who will never reveal your secrets
It’s so little what I can do here hanging
I can’t correct you if you’re wrong
Nor tell you not to sweep your sins under the carpet
I’m your reflection, but also the one of your shadow
I don’t have prejudices, I don’t accept or deny
But there are times when even me wouldn’t want to be in your arms
Look at me, I’m here, I’m real, change what you see
But I’m the same, mirror and not mirage
Impenetrable, uninhabitable, I don’t have moral, ideals
Identity or credencials, limits or outsets
With no reason of existence other than being your hideout
I exist only for you to need me
I’m the only one that stands your stare without hesitation
I’m the only one that’s with you when everything’s over
The only one that sees, what you don’t want to show
The one that can calm your fury and rage
I’m the only one who will never reveal your secrets
I’m the only one who will never reveal your secrets
I’m the only one who will never reveal your secrets
-Thank you for your time!
