Fish - The Other Side Of Me (Traducción al español)

By TheCactusHeart
Céfiros: según la mitología griega Céfiro era el dios del viento del oeste y era el más suave de todos. Era reconocido como el mensajero de la primavera. Céfiros se aplica a los vientos suaves y apacibles.
Felucca: es una embarcación tradicional de madera usada particularmente a lo largo del río Nilo en Egipto.
Menisco: son unos cartílagos ubicados en las rodillas.
Table mountain: lo interpreto como una planicie en una montaña. Con ese nombre se conoce también a una montaña de cima plana en Cd. del Cabo, Sudáfrica.


When the zephyrs pulse the sails I feel the tiller in my fingers,
Feluccas dancing, flirting on the swollen Nile,
Slowly touch the distance the meniscus of horizons a shimmering mirage across the desert sands.
I follow silken threads in coral caves in soft suspension,
Blades of torches scything through the stagnant gloom,
Life's breath escapes like mercury, swarming to the ceiling
Silver serpents tunnel shadows to another room.

I sensed someone there, I turned around, it wasn't you,
I couldn't recognise at first just who it was, it had been a while,
It seems crazy after all that has been said and done,
I took a vow that we would never walk alone,
But here I am, eye to eye and face to face with the other side of me.

Where the doorways tempt my intrigue with another key of sunlight, I am not afraid,
I nurse a steady heartbeat; the currency of breathing pays my way
toward new openings, In a life I used to know before.
First person singular, me, myself, I
First person singular, no tears left to cry,
I'm smiling deep inside, first person singular.

I wander through the archways of green and lush cathedrals,
barefoot on soft needles on the forest floor,
Awake inside a daydream, sombre meditation,
I only hear the whisper of the falling leaves.
It seems crazy after all that has been said and done,
I took a vow that we would never walk alone,
So here I am, eye to eye and face to face with the other side of me.

I lay on table mountain gazing down on endless ocean,
and I knew deep in my soul that I was not alone,
Heightened by the freedom of this new realisation,
the sun rose to the heavens through this crack of dawn. this crack of dawn.
I sensed someone there, I turned around, it wasn't you,
I couldn't recognise at first just who it was, it had been a while,
It seems crazy after all that has been said and done,
I took a vow that we would never walk alone,
So here I am, eye to eye and face to face with the other side of me.
The other side of me,
The other side of me,
On the other side of you
