Podría ser [English translation]

I could be all my life picking up the stars that

you left scattered around the sky and around me,

I could be singing until losing my voice,

I could be your paddle.

I could be the one who keeps the remains of your kisses,

The last page of the book of your longing,

I could be pretending each night until the sun rises,

I could do so.

You can see, how I respect all that you are living

How I do this just so that you believe that it's true,

And that in my life are only left a reason and a verse.

I could be, the calm of the Great Way of any day of this month,

The mark of that book which you stopped reading,

I could even be he who never was.

I could be time in the subtraction of a meeting,

Where you always know that it's your turn to lose.

I could be the stubborn man who repeats the moments

even when he knows that once again he will fall.

What I could not be is either an excuse or a pretext.

I could be all my life the way that night watchman was,

closing his door nightly to his torments,

I could be a guard, a shout and a savior finally,

perhaps even your homeland.

You can see that my future knows more than your disdain,

That my present entertains itself like a fool

and that in my life are only left a reason and a verse.

I could be, the calm of the Great Way of any day of this month,

The mark of that book which you stopped reading,

I could even be he who never was.

I could be time in the subtraction of a meeting,

Where you always know that it's your turn to lose.

I could be the stubborn man who repeats the moments

even when he knows that once again he will fall.

What I could not be is either an excuse or a pretext.
