---

I would like to see you and not see you.
I would like to talk to you and not talk to you.
I would like to find you alone and I would like not to find you.
The sorrow
and the sorrow that is not,
everything is sorrow.
Yesterday I was aching to see you,
today I grieve because I saw you.
-
Quisiera verte y no verte
quisiera hablarte y no hablarte
quisiera encontrarte a solas
y no quisiera encontrarte.
La pena
y la pena que no es,
todo es pena.
Ayer penaba por verte
hoy peno porque te vi.

Antonio Machado, born 1875 in Sevilla, Spain.
