Hoy se levanta el sol
César Velázquez Cervantes
Después de trasnochar días, días y días,
meses después, orientado por el abismo,
con la búsqueda del sosiego pegada a la piel.
Después de enfriar y recalentar la soledad,
observo el amanecer con cariño
desde aquí.
Se levanta el sol
en el lugar que es hoy.
Llegan los rayos ahora a mi rostro,
la calidez resurge habitual.
Resurge con una calma seca
que no incomoda, que insta frescura.
Se levanta el sol en ese verbo solidificado amé,
sin prisa.
Se levanta el sol y los recuerdos son en el día,
solo respiración.
Se levanta el sol y sé que amé y que recuerdo,
Y que, seguramente,
otra vez
amaré.
Danes vzhaja sonce
César Velázquez Cervantes
Po dnevih, dnevih in dnevih neprespanih noči,
mesece zatem, voden od brezna,
z iskanjem miru, prilepljenega na kožo.
Po ohladitvi in ogrevanju samote,
zoro z ljubeznijo opazujem
od tod.
Sonce vzhaja
od današnjega kraja.
Žarki zdaj dosežejo moj obraz,
običajna toplota se povrne.
Obnovi se s suhim umirjanjem
ki ne moti, ki spodbuja svežino.
Sonce vzhaja v strjenem glagolu, ljubil sem,
brez naglice.
Sonce vzhaja in spomini so v dnevu,
samo dihanje.
Sonce vzhaja in vem, da sem ljubil in da se spominjam,
in da, zagotovo
ponovno
bom ljubil.
Today the sun rises
César Velázquez Cervantes
After days, days, and days of sleepless nights,
months after, guided by the abysm,
with the search of calm stuck to the skin.
After cooling and warming of the solitude,
I observe the dawn with affection
from here.
The sun rises
from the place that is today.
The rays now reach my face,
the usual warmth resurfaces.
It resurfaces with a dry calm
that does not bother, that urges freshness.
The sun rises on the solidified verb, I loved,
with no hurry.
The sun rises and the memories are in the day,
just breathing.
The sun rises and I know that I loved and that I remember,
and that, surely,
again
I will love.
