Jorge Alberto Rivera Rojas writes to BtP that Sergio Denis, on his eponymous 1972 CBS album, sings Con Su Blanca Palidez to the following words by Ben Molar – the fourth lyric with this tune and title that we've collected.
|
Con Su Blanca Palidez |
With Her White Paleness |
|
El cielo ya no es cielo, |
Heaven is not heaven anymore |
|
y el sol no brilla más. |
And the sun no longer shines |
|
Y la luna en su desvelo |
And the moon in sleeplessness |
|
no tiene a quien besar. |
Has no one whom to kiss. |
|
Quedó desvanecida |
In our heart |
|
en nuestro corazón |
Has vanished |
|
la audacia de mirar al sol |
The audacity to look at the sun |
|
buscando retener... |
Whose aim is to retain |
|
Al paraíso perdido |
The lost paradise |
|
que se vive una vez |
Which we only lived once |
|
y se hunde en el olvido |
And sinks into oblivion |
|
con su blanca palidez. |
With its white paleness |
|
Dolor de fe vencida |
Her white paleness is |
|
es su blanca palidez |
a beaten faith hurt |
|
y en nuestra despedida |
Another life was gone |
|
otra vida que se fue. |
In our farewell |
|
Es en vano tanto anhelo |
Its useless so much a longing |
|
que en el cielo escucharán. |
Yet heaven will listen |
|
Y mis ojos ya vacíos |
And my empty eyes |
|
van rogando sin cesar... |
Are begging endlessly |
|
Oye Dios mío, Señor y juez! |
Hear me my God, Lord and Judge |
|
Quiero verla cerca mío, |
I want to see her close to me, |
|
otra vez muy cerca mío |
Once again very close to me |
|
con su blanca palidez. |
With her white paleness |
Thanks, Jorge
