AMOR CRUCIFICADO
Love Crucified
Text and music: Maria Hickein

​

​

Quise amarte Señor, hasta el extremo...
I wanted to love You Lord, to the end...

¡Ser compañera de amor, ser Tu consuelo!
To be your loving companion! Your consolation! 

y por amor a Ti, dejarme consumir...
and for love of You, to be consumed... 

víctima en el altar, cordero virginal,
a victim on the altar, a spotless lamb,

un pedacito de Tu pan...
a little piece of Your bread...

Tu palomita que al cantar 
Your little dove that, singing,

viene a clavarse a Tu rosal, 
came to Your rosebush to be nailed,

viene a dejarse traspasar.
came to be pierced.

Refrain:
Rompen mi corazón en pedacitos...
They break my heart into little pieces...

Me dejo desgarrar y traspasar, ¡me crucifico!
I allow the piercing and the tearing, my crucifixion! 

una Contigo soy... en Tu infinito,
I am ONE with you... in your eternity,

que quise ser amor y en el dolor me multiplico.
for I wanted to be love and through sorrow I am fruitful.

Quise amarte Señor, ¡apasionada!
I wanted to love You Lord, passionately!

saciar la sed de Tu amor con la mirada
to quench the thirst of Your love with my gaze

un solo corazón,
of ONE heart,

una misma oblación,
 the same oblation 

¡Ser Madre de la Cruz bañada en sangre y luz!
To be a Mother of the Cross bathed y blood and light!

tan traspasada como Tu...
pierced as you are...

abandonada en plenitud, para vivir en soledad el resto de mi humanidad...
 totally abandoned, to live in solitude the rest of my humanity...

Refrain:
Rompen mi corazón en pedacitos...
They brake my heart to little pieces...

Me dejo desgarrar y traspasar, ¡me crucifico!
I allow the piercing and the tearing, my crucifixion! 

una Contigo soy... en Tu infinito,
I am ONE with you... in Your eternity,

que quise ser amor y en el dolor me multiplico.
for I wanted to be love and through I am fruitful.
