The Cloud's Tranquillity

(video en Español)

The Cloud's Tranquillity

Only those
who are always looking at the sky
would notice that today
the clouds pass slowly and,
as they pass, subtly change
their shape and the chiaroscuro
of their shadows.
No doubts,
by force of nature,
they exert influence
on people and all things,
that even time
seems to pass slowly. 

Perhaps, that’s why,
while I've been
talking for quite a bit,
you have said nothing. 
However,
with an indecipherable language,
that we have made
for you and me only
to understand each other,
free of words that would
in any case fall
short, therefore
meaningless, useless, and obsolete,
you hold my hand with tenderness,
and I caress you with my thumb,
to let you know
that I feel the same.

About clouds and
many other things,
we all learn in school. 
But often,
when those things we know
lack of usefulness,
they lose importance, and
we soon forget them. 
But what is significant
is often present
in everything we do. 
No wonder,
I find you in all things
around me,
with intrinsic meaning.
 
It is not for everyone
to understand, I am aware.
This is an ordinary affair
of two who love each other,
because even those
who are always looking at the sky
would have to know about you
to understand that today,
in the contour of all things,
facilitating circumstances,
the air generously carries:
The tranquillity
of the passing clouds,
when you say nothing.

La tranquilidad de las nubes 

SĂłlo aquellos
que siempre estĂĄn mirando al cielo
notarĂ­an que hoy
las nubes pasan lentamente y,
al pasar, cambian sutilmente
su forma y el claroscuro
de sus sombras.
Sin duda alguna,
por la fuerza de la naturaleza,
ejercen influencia sobre
las personas y todas las cosas;
que incluso el tiempo
parece pasar lentamente. 

QuizĂĄs, sea por eso,
que mientras yo he estado hablando
 por un buen rato,
tĂș no has dicho nada. 
Sin embargo,
con un lenguaje indescifrable,
que hemos hecho
para que sĂłlo tĂș y yo
nos entendamos,
libre de palabras
que en todo caso se quedarĂ­an
 cortas, por lo tanto
sin sentido, inĂștiles y obsoletas,
tĂș me tomas de la mano con ternura
y yo te acaricio con el pulgar,
para que tĂș sepas
que yo siento lo mismo.

Sobre las nubes y
muchas otras cosas,
todos aprendemos en la escuela. 
Pero a menudo,
cuando esas cosas que sabemos
 carecen de utilidad,
pierden importancia y
pronto las olvidamos. 
Pero lo que es significativo
suele estar presente
en todo lo que hacemos.
No es de extrañar
que yo te encuentre en todas
las cosas que me rodean,
con un significado intrĂ­nseco.

No es para que todo el mundo
lo entienda, estoy consciente. 
Es un asunto ordinario
de dos que se aman,
porque incluso aquellos
que siempre estĂĄn mirando al cielo
tendrĂ­an que saber de ti
para entender que hoy,
en el contorno de todas las cosas,
facilitando circunstancias,
el aire lleva generosamente:
La tranquilidad
de las nubes que pasan,
cuando no dices nada.
