Anoche me di cuenta que el tiempo lentamente pasaba Cuando descubr? el da?o que haces cuando no est?s Y me vi, solo me vi tratando de completar mi alma y me vi, solo me vi buscandome entre nada Y ya distingu? lo que mas duele lo que m?s me hace falta lo que m?s ped? y s?lo lo quiero que est?s aqui Y te vi, solo te vi ya no quiero que dejes de estar junto a mi Solo te vi y ya todo terminaba

Y sin t? no estoy tranquilo Porque el aire se me acaba Y sin tu voz nada escucho Porque todo se me acaba

Ya conoc? el dolor no lo quiero volver a sentir pasa por mi y lentamente me quita lo que te di

ya sabes lo que mas siento ya te lo di Todo te di con nada me he quedado

Last night I realized That time slowly passed When I discovered the pain you make me feel when you are not here. And I saw myself, I only saw myself trying to complete my soul finding myself between nothing and I already distinguished what hurts more What I miss more, what I asked more And I only wish that you were here And I saw you, I only saw you I don't want for you to stop being with me I only saw you And everything is over already And without you I'm not OK Because the air has gone away And without your voice I hear nothing Because everything has gone away I already knew the pain and I don't want to feel it again It passes for me And slowly I remove everything that I gave you All that I gave you You already know what more I feel, I already gave it to you I gave you everything with nothing I wanted

What do you think? Pretty close? Gracias.

Not bad, jeez. Here's how I'd translate it. Some of the differences are only a matter of personal preference.

Last night I noticed that time passed slowly when I discovered the harm that you cause when you're not here. And I saw myself, I saw myself alone (solo not sólo)trying to complete my soul and I saw myself. I saw myself alone searching among nothing and I figured out what hurts me most, what I need most, what I asked for most and I just want you to be here and I saw you, alone I saw you. Now I don't want you to stop being with me. Alone I saw you and now it's all over. And without you I don't move because my air is gone and without your voice I hear nothing because everything is gone. I've already known pain and I don't want to feel it again. It goes through me and slowly takes away what I gave you. You already know what I feel the most; I already gave it to you. I gave you everything. I'm left with nothing.

Oh yeah, entre can mean among AND between, I had forgotten. - jeezzle, Apr 27, 2010
Looks good except for the "without you I don't move" I don't get that from "Sin ti estoy tranquilo" gracias. - jeezzle, Apr 27, 2010
So "volver a sentir pasa por mi" means it goes through me? I don't get it. - jeezzle, Apr 27, 2010

It looks pretty accurate to me.

Yeah, I know, it's a bit of a stretch but "estoy tranquilo" means "I'm calm/quiet/tranquil" which just doesn't make sense to me. I don't think "I'm not OK" would work. Since he's "tranquilo" because his air is gone, I thought that maybe he's tranquil because he's almost dead and so he's not moving. Does anyone else have any suggestions? Gekkosan?

So "volver a sentir pasa por mi" means it goes through me? I don't get it.

I read it like this: Ya conocí el dolor. (I've already known pain.) No lo quiero volver a sentir. (I don't want to feel it again.) Pasa por mi... (It goes/passes through me)

No he says "Sin ti no estoy tranquilo" like "i'm not OK without you" Seems to work perfect, you know, I can't seem to relax without you. - jeezzle, Apr 27, 2010
I can't calm myself with you. = I'm not OK without you. To me anway. - jeezzle, Apr 27, 2010
By the way, songs about a dead girl that killed herself and he doesn't have her anymore so she is gone and dead, but he doesn't want to move on without her, as far as I know. - jeezzle, Apr 27, 2010
I do agree with the bottom half. - jeezzle, Apr 27, 2010
You're absolutely right, Jeez. I overlooked the "no". - alba3, Apr 27, 2010
