Leonard Cohen - Suzanne 1 Spanish translation lyrics

Susana

Susana te transporta
A su sitio junto al río,
Escuchás pasar los barcos,
Vos podés dormir con ella
Y sabés que está algo loca,
Pero es por eso que bajas
Y te da té con naranjas
Que vinieron de la China
Y cuando querés decirle
"yo no tengo amor que darte",
Ella te pone en su onda
Y deja al río contestarte
Que siempre fuiste su amante.
Y querés viajar con ella
Y querés viajar ciegamente
Y sabés que ella confía
Pues tocaste su cuerpo
Perfecto con tu mente.
Y Jesús fue un navegante
Cuando anduvo sobre el agua
Y pasó un tiempo mirando
En su torre de madera
Y cuando estuvo seguro
Que tan solo los ahogados
Lo verían dijo "todos
Los hombres serán marinos
Hasta que el mar los libere",
Pero él ya estaba roto
Antes que el cielo se abra,
Perdonado, casi humano,
Se hundió bajo tu ciencia como piedra.                                                 
Y querés viajar con él
Y querés viajar ciegamente
Y pensás: "tal vez confíes",
Pues tocó tu perfecto
Cuerpo con su mente.
Susana te da la mano
Y te lleva junto al río,
Viste con trapos y plumas
Del arma de salvación
Y el sol cae como miel
En nuestra dama del puerto
Y te enseña a mirar
En la basura y en las flores.
Hay héroes en las algas,
Hay niños en la mañana,
Se inclinan por amor
Y así se inclinarán siempre
Y Susana tiene el espejo.
Y querés viajar con ella
Y querés viajar ciegamente
Y sabés que confiarías
Pues tocó tu perfecto
Cuerpo con su mente.

Suzanne 1

Suzanne takes you down to her place near the river
You can hear the boats go by
You can spend the night beside her
And you know that she's half crazy
But that's why you want to be there
And she feeds you tea and oranges
That come all the way from China
And just when you mean to tell her
That you have no love to give her
Then she gets you on her wavelength
And she lets the river answer
That you've always been her lover
And you want to travel with her
And you want to travel blind
And you know that she will trust you
For you've touched her perfect body with your mind.

And Jesus was a sailor
When he walked upon the water
And he spent a long time watching
From his lonely wooden tower
And when he knew for certain
Only drowning men could see him
He said &quot;All men will be sailors then
Until the sea shall free them&quot;
But he himself was broken
Long before the sky would open
Forsaken, almost human
He sank beneath your wisdom like a stone
And you want to travel with him
And you want to travel blind
And you think maybe you'll trust him
For he's touched your perfect body with his mind.

Now Suzanne takes your hand
And she leads you to the river
She is wearing rags and feathers
From Salvation Army counters
And the sun pours down like honey
On our lady of the harbour
And she shows you where to look
Among the garbage and the flowers
There are heroes in the seaweed
There are children in the morning
They are leaning out for love
And they will lean that way forever
While Suzanne holds the mirror
And you want to travel with her
And you want to travel blind
And you know that you can trust her
For she's touched your perfect body with her mind.
