[English]

Cold, like a steel rock of evil

...

It frosted over, after crossing the threshold

...

It didn’t sink, among icebergs and salt

...

Banging your head against the wall

Again and again

Until your temple bleeds

And watch a being fade away

A being in anguish

That writhes upon seeing

Its desires frustrated

The anxiety

That torments it in its darkness

Cold, like a steel rock of evil

...

It scorned any gift found within itself

Honey was never for its palate

...

Rivers of hatred and seas of resentment

In an eternity stained with pain

Serving a sentence for a regrettable mistake

That won’t end until both are finished

The anxiety, that torments it

In its darkness

Cold, like a steel rock of evil

...

Corrupting life without knowing

What wound you’re inflicting

Without valuing afterward

The decades of pain

The souls without warmth

The sad immensity

The legacy of the two, of the two

The anxiety, that torments it

In its darkness

Cold, like a steel rock of evil

...

[Spanish]

Gélida, como una roca de acero y mal

Se escarchó, tras pasar por el umbral

No se hundió, entre témpanos y sal

Dar con la cabeza en la pared

Una y otra vez

Hasta sangrar su sien

Y ver desfallecer

A un angustioso ser

Que se retuerce al ver

Frustrado su querer

La ansiedad

Que le atormenta en su oscuridad

Gélida, como una roca de acero y mal

Despreció cualquier don hallado en él

Nunca fue para el paladar la miel

Ríos de odio y mares de rencor

En una eternidad manchada de dolor

Cumplir condena por un lamentable error

Que no tendrá final hasta acabar los dos

La ansiedad, que le atormenta

En su oscuridad

Gélida, como una roca de acero y mal

Corromper la vida sin saber

Qué herida vas a hacer

Sin valorar después

Los lustros de dolor

Las almas sin calor

La triste inmensidad

La herencia de los dos, de los dos

La ansiedad, que le atormenta

En su oscuridad

Gélida, como una roca de acero y mal
