Pasa el tiempo y sin ti, no sé vivir
Time passes and without you, I don't know how to live
La razón es para mí siempre sufrir
The reason for me is always to suffer
Y ahora, el viento al pasar me da a entender
And now, the wind passing by makes me understand
Que en la vida solo a ti esperaré
That in life, I will only wait for you
Yo recuerdo tu mirar y tu besar
I remember your gaze and your kiss
Tu sonrisa bajo el sol primaveral
Your smile under the spring sun
Estoy solo sin saber lo que tú harás
I'm alone not knowing what you will do
En mi alma hay dolor al esperar
In my soul, there’s pain in waiting
Ven a mí, ven no tardes más
Come to me, come don't take too long
Ven por favor, te ruego yo, no podré esperar
Please come, I beg you, I can't wait
Ven a mí, yo quiero saber
Come to me, I want to know
Si has de venir por fin, así dímelo amor
If you will finally come, then tell me love
Es la vida que envejece sin piedad
It's life that ages mercilessly
Más mi amor siempre será eternidad
But my love will always be eternity
En mis blancas noches tú revivirás
In my white nights, you will come alive again
El recuerdo de mi amor al despertar
The memory of my love upon waking
En mi mente siempre como un altar
In my mind, always like an altar
Y tu rostro grabo en mí para soñar
And your face I imprint in me to dream
El momento ha de llegar muy pronto ya
The moment will come very soon now
Y veré la realidad al despertar
And I will see the reality upon waking
Ven, ven a mí ven, ven no tardes más
Come, come to me, come, don't take any longer
Ven, por favor te ruego yo, no podré esperar
Come, please I beg you, I can't wait
Ven, oh ven a mí yo, yo quiero saber
Come, oh come to me, I want to know
Si has de venir por fin así, dímelo amor
If you will finally come this way, tell me, my love
