TOCADOS POR UN ÁNGEL
Nosotros, desacostumbrados al valor
exiliados del placer
enroscados en el caparazón de la soledad
hasta que el amor baja de su templo sagrado
y se presenta a nuestros ojos
para liberarnos a la vida.
Llega el amor
y en su tren vienen éxtasis
viejos recuerdos de gozo
antiguas historias de dolor.
Y si somos audaces,
el amor arranca de nuestras almas
las cadenas del miedo.
Al calor de la luz del amor
abandonamos nuestra timidez
nos atrevemos a ser valientes
Y de pronto vemos que el amor
nos cuesta todo lo que somos
y todo lo que podemos ser.
Y sin embargo es el amor
lo único que nos libera.
Touched By An Angel
We, unaccustomed to courage
exiles from delight
live coiled in shells of loneliness
until love leaves its high holy temple
and comes into our sight
to liberate us into life.
Love arrives
and in its train come ecstasies
old memories of pleasure
ancient histories of pain.
Yet if we are bold,
love strikes away the chains of fear
from our souls.
We are weaned from our timidity
In the flush of love's light
we dare be brave
And suddenly we see
that love costs all we are
and will ever be.
Yet it is only love
which sets us free.
