Porque no puedo dormir

"Ay del sueño"
~Mario Benedetti
Ay del sueño
si sobrevivo es ya borrándome
ya desconfiado y permante
y tantas veces me hundo y sueño
muslo a tu muslo
boca a tu boca
nunca sabré quién sos

ahora que estoy insomne
como un sagrado
y permanezco
quiero morir de siesta
muslo a tu muslo
boca a tu boca
para saber quién sos

Ay del sueño
con esta poca alma a destajo
soñar a nado tiernamente
así me llamen permanezco
muslo a tu muslo
boca a tu boca
quiero quedarme en vos
Ay the dream
if I survive is already erasing me
already distrusted and permanent
and so often I myself sink and dream
thigh to your thigh
mouth to your mouth
I never really knew you

now that I am sleepless
as the blessed
and I remain
I want to die of rest
thigh to your thigh
mouth to your mouth
to know you

Ay the dream
with this little heart paid
by dreaming of tender swimming
so they call me I remain
thigh to your thigh
mouth to your mouth
I want to remain in all of you
