¿Quién eres tú?

(Bolero)

Who are you, that loving me by day
you pull me away from the danger of the night?
Who are you, who with wisdom
nullifies all the weight of reproach?

Who are you, always supporting
my will, offering me the secure
window where the sun is rising
and filling my adventure with life?

I want to escape from those serious hours,
where things are never clear:
perhaps there awaits you the answer
to the question you posed to me.

I repay your love with a lavish love,
purer than snow and more humane
than the water you drank from another well,
and everything that your hand touched.

In the Inti-Illimani version:

* you drag me into the danger of the night
** and fill my adventure with life
*** than the water you drank from other wells
