Thank you so much for doing all these translations, it's so hard to find reliable Spanish song translations jokes
elsewhere. I'm an American student studying Spanish in Barcelona, and I actually made this Livejournal jose alfredo jimenez
account specifically to thank you for this, I'm getting more and more addicted to Juanes and Mana songs,
but for a while I was wondering why you hadn't translated probably my favorite Juanes song, thanks a juan gabriel
ton for this!

Ah, you're welcome! I have more old Geocities songs that I am slowing putting kany garcia

This is amazing! I love it. But what exactly is some of the Symbolism in this song?
Thanks. marc anthony

Juanes tends to make references to the ongoing violence and conflict in melendi
Colombia in his songs. milly quezada

See Wikipedia for a summary: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colombian_ monroy & surmenage

conflict_(1964%E2%80%93present)

This song does not have as many references, but I think the few lines that cairaguas nach
you may be wondering about ("That my mother not die and
that my father remember me" and "That my village not shed so much blood") do make oblique natalia clavier
references to the conflict. I added the link in the main text to help future readers. natalia lafourcade

Thank you, I looked at other translations and, though my spanish is poor, recognized they
were severely deficient. This one agrees with how I understand it. And special thanks for the footnotes. panasuyo

"Que mi alma no descanse

Cuando de amarte se trate mi cielo,"

I believe "mi cielo" refers to the person he's singing to, just like "mi vida".

So the translation would be something like...

"That my soul never rest

When it comes to loving you, my heaven (my love),
I ask God."

Oops. Thanks! You're right. I checked the song when I reposted it from the old
website, but I missed that line.

Fixed.
