piropos

from the costa rica phrasebook: piropos, which are little romantic poems, or “friendly compliments.”

quisiera ser tus lágrimas
para nacer en tus ojos,
recorrer tu cara y morir
en tu boca.

i would like to be a tear
to be born in your eyes,
to run down your face and
die in your mouth.

me gustaría ser el sol
para iluminar tu habitación
y todos los dias mandarte
un rayito hasta tu corazón.

i would like to be the sun
to light up your room and
send a ray of sunlight
to your heart everyday.

los que se masturbatan
pensando en vos se
mueren de sobredosis.

those who masturbate
thinking of you,
will die of an overdose.
