Original lyrics
Dolores
Querida mía
No puedo quedarme callada,
Que te conozco desde que era niña,
Cuando mi abuela cocinaba,
Y recordaba tus ojos verdes,
Aunque ya no sabía cómo se llamaba.
Con la mano en la Biblia te lo digo yo.
Tú eras más libre que todos los hombres,
Insufribles y arrogantes,
Capaces de sepultar tu alegría,
diciendo que tu poesía,
No estaba a la altura, que no lo valías.
Malquerida y sufridora,
Aprendiste que el amor,
Era el que esperaba en casa,
El que no preguntaba,
El que ofrecía devoción,
A cambio de puñaladas.
El que moría y mataba de amor.
Cómo ibas a decir,
Que tú no eras esa,
Que no había en el mundo moneda,
Ni falsa ni verdadera,
Que pudiera pagar lo que dabas,
Que quitara toda tu tristeza.
Tú que tenías la voz de las mujeres perdidas,
Y a la vez la voz de tu España querida,
Cortando el viento a tu paso,
Fuiste siempre incomprendida,
Como si esa pena, esa pena,
Fuese la única forma posible,
De amar.

Pains
My beloved
I can't keep quiet
I know you since childhood
When my grandmother cooked
And I remembered your green eyes
Though I didn't know what was her name
With my hand in the Bible I tell you
You are freer than all men
Insufferable and arrogant
Capable to bury your happiness
Saying that your poem
Was not on par, that you weren't worth it
Disliked and suffering
You learned that love
Was the one awaiting at home
The one that didn't ask questions
The one that offered devotion
In exchange for stabbings
The one that died and killed of love
How were you going to say
That you weren't her
That in the world there was no coin
Whether real or false
That could pay for what you gave
That would remove all your sadness
You that had the voice of the lost women
And at the same time the voice of your beloved Spain
Cutting the air as you walked
You were always misunderstood
As if that pain, that pain
Was the only possible way
To love
