Javier Corcobado "Susurro" - translation, please help
I'd appreciate your help with translating the lyrics of the song below. I don't care about the most accurate translation, as it's only for my understanding of the song. Thank you in advance.
Javier Corcobado SUSURRO
.
Hace mucho tiempo que no veo el amor en los demás,
ya nadie sonríe ni dice la verdad.
Guerras, torturas y engaños en la televisión,
y lo único que puedo hacer es susurrar está canción.
I haven't seen love in others for a long time,
No one smiles nor tells the truth any more.
Wars, tortures and lies on the television,
And the only thing I can do is whisper this song.
.
Veo alejarse la espalda de mi juventud
entre campos de amapolas y sombras de multitud.
Las palmeras tecleando con sus uñas en el sol
los besos invisibles de los perfumes de tu amor, ay, de tu amor.
I can see my youth going away
Through poppy fields and shadows of many. (??)
Palms playing their leaves in the sun
the invisible kisses of your love's perfume, of your love.
.
Nuestro barco se ha perdido en el pensamiento del mar.
Me rozan tus pestañas las heridas al recordar
que la humanidad se hunde en su propia necedad.
He perdido el manual del odio respirando tu amor y tu voz.
Our boat has got lost in the see's thoughts/in the idea of the sea (??)
Your eyelashes brush me the wounds to the memory (??)
that the humanity buries in its own foolishness.
I've lost the manual of the hatred breathing your love and your voice.
.
Abrazado a tu espalda las estrellas nos dormirán.
Todas las canciones del mundo se borrarán.
Todos los recuerdos y los males se ahogarán.
Y sólo habrá música en tu cuerpo, mi amor, y en tu voz.
Embracing your back the stars will put us to sleep.
All the songs in the world shall disappear.
All the memories and injuries shall drown.
And there will only be the music in your body, my love, and in your voice.

Ayer lo vi pero ya era la una...voy a verlo ahora, aunque no creo que lo pueda mejorar.
Bueno, y ya que me he picado,,,he intentado ponerlo en verso, a ver si te gusta
No love have I seen in others for long,
Smiles and telling the truth are long gone.
On Tv only lies , tortures and wars go on
And I can only...... whisper this song.
Slowly my youth is fading
Through poppy fields and people's shadows
A love song palms with their leaves are playing
the invisible caresses of your love's perfume, of your love's.
.
Our boat got lost in the thoughts of the sea
Your eyelashes brush my wounds while we see
In its own foolishness humanity getting buried
breathing your love and voice I am rid of all hatred.
.
Embracing you, stars will put us to sleep.
All songs in the world shall disappear.
All memories and badness shall drown deep
Only memories will prevail...of you body, and your voice, dear....
And now we can ask sombody to really put this in verse
jeje
Me rozan tus pestañas ...
I touch your eyelashes ...
Wouldn't that mean more like "Your eyelashes, they touch/rub/graze me"?
Nuestro barco se ha perdido en el pensamiento del mar.
Me rozan tus pestañas las heridas al recordar
Our ship has been lost in the thought of the sea
Your eyelashes rub me, the wounds to the memory
I like how he can make both the spanish words and english translations rhyme, that is hard to do.
I don't think my translation is correct, but could be an option. Poetry/songs are hard. A side thought, one of the auto-translators came up with "clear your eyelashes" for the rozan part... So maybe that means something like "don't cry, or stop crying". A possibility but I doubt it. Anyways, I'm just throwin out options as once again, poetry is hard and I never understand it.
Thanks, Heidi 
I like your interpretation, and - most important - I'm now sure that I've understood the song more than less, jejeje...
Only memories will prevail...
However, I'll stick to music
Let's wait for the others to have a go, then I'll accept the best answer.
You're right, "Your eyelashes rub/touch me".
Because it's one of my favourite Spanish songs, I simply wanted to understand what it's abou. And thank you for the answer, Cheese
At least those question-marked fragments?
