Soñemos     Let's dream on
 
Music: Roberto Caló
Lyrics: Reinaldo Yiso
Rec. by Rodolfo Biagi
with Hugo Duval
  Tr. Jake Spatz
Recited 22 Nov. 2006, Divino Lounge
 
Yo sé que es imposible
seguirte y adorarte,
que es un pecado amarte
y darte el corazón.
Pero no importa, vida!
Soñemos esta noche
aunque después lloremos
mañana al despertar...

I know that it's impossible
to chase you and adore you,
that it's a sin to love you
and give you all my heart.
But what's the difference, darling!
Let's just dream on tonight
even though it leaves us crying
tomorrow when we rise...

Soñemos
que los dos estamos libres!
Soñemos
en la gloria de este amor!
Soñemos
que ya nada nos separa
y que somos cual dos almas
que nacieron para amar...

Let's dream on
that we both have got our freedom!
Let's dream on
within the glory of this love!
Let's dream on
that nothing keeps us separated
and that we are as two souls fated
to find each other and fall in love...

Soñemos
que me quieres y te quiero,
no importa
que mañana, al despertar,
tus besos
se despidan de mis besos,
y así nuestro embeleso
morirá con nuestro adiós ...

Let's dream on
that I'm yours and that you're mine—
what matter
that tomorrow, when we rise,
your kisses
will have to leave behind my kisses,
and see the rapture that we've cherished
perish there at our goodbyes...

Yo sé que nunca nadie
podría separarnos,
y aún no estando juntos
nos une un mismo amor.
Acaso en otra vida
muy juntos nos hallemos,
y nunca más lloremos
la pena de este amor!

I know that no one ever
could keep us two apart,
and when we're not together
one love unites us both.
And maybe in the next life
we'll find ourselves together,
nor ever weep again
the sorrows of this love!
