Quiero Ser Luz

Night is falling on me
In the middle of the afternoon
I don't want to become a shadow
I want to be light and stay
I don't want to become a shadow
I want to be light and stay

I burned in the night
Following the same path
Always behind a guitar
I turned off the last star

I don't know what happiness I seek
What fantasies
What zamba took away my sleep
What night my spring

Today as I start to think
I only converse in silence
My eyes from before look at me
Full of absence and time

The same gaze as always
From those years so far away
Finally, I fall asleep in the night
Illuminated by the old evening star
