Lyrics

Casi todos sabemos querer
Pero pocos sabemos amar
Y es que amar y querer no es igual
Amar es sufrir, querer es gozar
El que ama pretende servir
El que ama su vida la da
Y el que quiere pretende vivir
Y nunca sufrir, y nunca sufrir
El que ama no puede pensar
Todo lo da, todo lo da El que quiere pretende olvidar
Y nunca llorar y nunca llorar
El querer pronto puede acabar
El amor no conoce el final
Es que todos sabemos querer
Pero pocos sabemos amar
El amar es la cielo y la luz
El amar es total plenitud
Es el mar que no tiene final
Es la gloria y la paz, es la gloria y la paz
El querer es la carne y la flor
Es buscar el obscuro rincon
Es morder, araar y besar
Es deseo fugaz, es deseo fugaz
El que ama no puede pensar
Todo lo da, todo lo da El que quiere pretende olvidar
Y nunca llorar y nunca llorar
El querer pronto puede acabar
El amor no conoce el final
Es que todos sabemos querer
Pero pocos sabemos amar
El que ama no puede pensar
Todo lo da, todo lo da El que quiere pretende olvidar
Y nunca llorar y nunca llorar
El querer pronto puede acabar
El amor no conoce el final
Es que todos sabemos querer
Pero pocos sabemos amar

Lyrics translation

Almost all of us know how to want
But few know how to love
And it is that love and love is not the same
To love is to suffer, to want is to enjoy
The one who loves wants to serve
He who loves his life gives it
And the one who wants to live
And never suffer, and never suffer
The one who loves cannot think
Everything he gives, everything he gives he wants to forget
And never cry and never cry
Wanting can soon end
Love knows no end
Is that we all know how to love
But few know how to love
Love Is Heaven and light
Love is total fullness
It is the sea that has no end
It's glory and peace, it's glory and peace
Wanting is flesh and flower
Is to find the dark corner
It's biting, plowing and kissing
It's fleeting desire, it's fleeting desire
The one who loves cannot think
Everything he gives, everything he gives he wants to forget
And never cry and never cry
Wanting can soon end
Love knows no end
Is that we all know how to love
But few know how to love
The one who loves cannot think
Everything he gives, everything he gives he wants to forget
And never cry and never cry
Wanting can soon end
Love knows no end
Is that we all know how to love
But few know how to love
