Diamanda Galas - Si La Muerte текст песни

Si la muerte viene y pregunta por m?
Haga el favor
De decirle que vuelva ma?ana
Que todav?a no han cancelado mis deudas
Ni her terminado un poema
Ni he ordenado mi ropa para el viaje
Ni he llevado a su destino el encargo ajeno
Ni he echado llave en mis gavetas

Ni he dicho lo que deb?a decir a los amigos
Ni he sentido el olor de la rosa
Que no ha nacido
Ni he desenterrado mis ra?ces
Ni he escrito una carta pendiente
Que ni siquiera me he lavado las manos
Ni he conocido un hijo
Ni he emprendido caminatas en paises desconocidos
Ni conozco los siete velos del mar
(Ni la canci?n del marino)

Si la muerte vieniera
Diga por favor que estoy enterado
Que me haga una espera
Que no le he dado a mi novia ni un beso de despedida
Que no he repartido mi mano con las de la familia
Ni he desempolvado los libros
Ni he silvado la canci?n preferida
Ni me he reconciliado con los enemigos
(Digale que no he probado el suicidio,
Ni he visto libre a mi gente)

D?gale, si quiere, que vuelva ma?ana
Que no es que le tema pero, ni siquiera...
D?gale, si quiere, que vuelva ma?ana
Que no es que le tema pero, ni siquiera...
D?gale, si quiere, que vuelva ma?ana
Que no es que le tema pero, ni siquiera...
D?gale, si quiere, que vuelva ma?ana
Que no es que le tema pero, ni siquiera...
He empezado a andar el camino.

If Death

If death comes and asks for me
Do me a favor
And tell it to come back tomorrow
Because my debts haven't been canceled
Nor have I finished a poem
Nor have I arranged my clothes for the trip
Nor have I delivered a package
Nor have I locked my drawers

Nor have I told my friends what I have to tell them
Nor have I felt the scent of an unborn rose
Nor have I dug up my roots
Nor have I written an overdue letter
Because I haven't even washed my hands
Nor have I met a son
Nor have I walked through unknown countries
Nor do I know the sea's seven sails
(Nor the sailor's song)

If death should come
Tell it please that I'm aware
That it has to wait
Because haven't kissed my girlfriend goodbye
Because I haven't shaken hands with my family
Nor have I blew the dust off my books
Nor have I whistled my favorite song
Nor have I reconciled with my enemies
(Tell it I haven't tried suicide,
Nor have I seen my people free)

Tell it, if you want, to come back tomorrow
Because it's not that I'm afraid, but I haven't even...
Tell it, if you want, to come back tomorrow
Because it's not that I'm afraid, but I haven't even...
Tell it, if you want, to come back tomorrow
Because it's not that I'm afraid, but I haven't even...
Tell it, if you want, to come back tomorrow
Because it's not that I'm afraid, but I haven't even...
Started to walk my path.
