Carne/Meat (Spanish w/ English Translation)

Feedback Received!

TRANSLATION:

Like some pagan priest with his offerings,
I surrender myself, my Goddess, to your carnal will,
Take me in your hands — pervert me
With your deep desires — my primal Goddess.

Some hidden need forces her to take a lover
She becomes a lady of the night with her hated client:
Her body approaches, but her passion is distant,
She sins and suffers this act of jaded love.

In silence her lips calm, and then her hands,
As does, little by little, the rain after a storm,
“You can go”, she tells me, what words more mundane
Could tell me that my heart will never please her.

​

ORIGINAL:

Como algún sacerdote pagan dejando ofertas,
Me entrego, mi Diosa, a tu voluntad carnal,
Que me tomes en tus manos — que me perviertes
Con tus deseos profundos — mi Diosa primal.

Por alguna carencia que le exige tomar amante
Es una dama de la noche con su cliente odiado:
Me acerca su cuerpo, pero su pasión es distante,
Comete su pecado, sufre el acto de amor hastiado.

Con silencio calman sus labios, después sus manos,
Como lo hace poco a poco la lluvia tras una tormenta
"Te puedes ir", me dice, que palabras mas mundanas
Para decirme que mi corazón nunca le hará contenta.
