El Rescate - Bunbury

Desde la plaza de armas de un lugar cualquiera

Te escribo una carta para que tú sepas

Lo que ya sabías, aunque no lo dijeras

Espero que llegue a tus manos y, que no la devuelvas

Que pagues el rescate que abajo te indico

Yo tampoco me explico, por qué no acudí antes a ti

Pero nadie puede salvarme, nadie sabe lo que sabes

Y tampoco entregarían lo que vale mi rescate

No hay dinero, ni castillos, ni avales, ni talonarios

No hay en este mundo, -aunque parezca absurdo-

Ni en planetas por descubrir, lo que aquí te pido

Y no te obligo a nada que no quieras

Las fuerzas me fallan, mis piernas no responden;

Te conocen, pero no llegan a ti

Decidí por eso mismo, un mecanismo de defensa

Y presa como está mi alma, con la calma suficiente

Ser más fuerte, y enfrentarme cuanto antes a la verdad

Sin dudar un segundo, lo asumo, sólo tú puedes pagar el rescate

Devuélveme el amor que me arrebataste

O entrégaselo, lo mismo me da, al abajo firmante;

Pues no hay en este mundo, -aunque parezca absurdo-

Ni en planetas por descubrir, lo que aquí te pido

Y no te obligo a nada que no quieras

Las fuerzas me fallan, mis piernas no responden;

Te conocen, pero no llegan a ti

Y no te obligo a nada que no quieras

Las fuerzas me fallan, mis piernas no responden;

Te conocen, pero no llegan a ti

(gracias a Iván por esta letra)

From the parade ground of any place

I write you a letter so that you know

What you already knew, even if you didn't say it

I hope it reaches your hands and that you do not return it

That you pay the ransom that I indicate below

I don't explain myself either, why I didn't come to you before

But no one can save me, no one knows what you know

And neither would they deliver what my ransom is worth

There is no money, no castles, no endorsements, no checkbooks

There is not in this world, -although it may seem absurd-

Not even in undiscovered planets, what I ask of you here

And I do not force you to anything that you do not want

My strength fails me, my legs don't respond;

They know you, but they don't reach you

I decided for that, a defense mechanism

And prey as my soul is, calmly enough

Be stronger, and face the truth as soon as possible

Without a second's hesitation, I assume, only you can pay the ransom

Give me back the love you took from me

Or deliver it, I don't care, to the undersigned;

Well, there is not in this world, -although it may seem absurd-

Not even in undiscovered planets, what I ask of you here

And I do not force you to anything that you do not want

My strength fails me, my legs don't respond;

They know you, but they don't reach you

And I do not force you to anything that you do not want

My strength fails me, my legs don't respond;

They know you, but they don't reach you
