My Heart has Two Beats

My heart has two beats
and they are not in synchronicity
it is the day when they overlap
that I know I shall die

Por que uno se apresura
y el otro se alenta, uno
evita al otro, y uno
persigue al otro

It is when both die of
tiredness and boredom
they will capitulate
give up and surrender

I wish I could speak the tongue
of one of them
I with I could understand
the reasons of the other

Sólo hablo la lengua de uno
él otro sólo habla tristeza
y él otro avaricia
sólo entiendo la lengua avara.
