La Palabra y Pedro Guerra ? Estos Poemas

Estos poemas los desencadenaste tú,
como se desencadena el viento,
sin saber hacia dónde ni por qué.
Son dones del azar o del destino,
que a veces la soledad arremolina o barre;
nada más que palabras que se encuentran,
que se atraen y se juntan
irremediablemente,
y hacen un ruido melodioso o triste,
lo mismo que dos cuerpos que se aman.

You have unleashed these poems
Like one unleashes the wind
Without knowing wherefrom or why
They are gifts of fortune or destiny
That sometimes whirl about or sweep loneliness
Nothing more than words that meet each other,
Attract each other and get together
Inevitably
And make a melodic or sad noise
The same as two bodies that love each other

thanks smile. I wasn't sure whether or not "cuerpos" could translate as "people". I uploaded the song on my page here and I really love it.

The same as two bodies that love each other
I think this should be - The same as two people that love each other - Bodies don't actualy love, they make love. Love is created by the soul, the mind and the intangible essence of the body. The rest, however, is beautifully put.
