Spanish to English: Quote from Gabriel García Márquez (R.I.P.) General field: Art/Literary Detailed field: Poetry & Literature
Source text - Spanish "Si supiera que esta fuera la última vez que te vea salir por la puerta, te daría un abrazo, un beso y te llamaría de nuevo para darte más. Si supiera que esta fuera la última vez que voy a oír tu voz, grabaría cada una de tus palabras para poder oírlas una y otra vez indefinidamente.
Si supiera que estos son los últimos minutos que te veo diría "te quiero" y no asumiría, tontamente, que ya lo sabes. Siempre hay una mañana y la vida nos da otra oportunidad para hacer las cosas bien, pero por si me equivoco y hoy es todo lo que nos queda, me gustaría decirte cuanto te quiero, que nunca te olvidaré."
Translation - English "If I knew that this was the last time I'm going to see you walk out of the door, I'd give you a hug, a kiss, and I'd call you back so that I could give you more. If I knew that this was the last time I'm going to hear your voice, I'd record each of your words so that I could listen to them over and over indefinitely.
If I knew that these are the last minutes I'm going to see you, I'd say "I love you" and not assume, stupidly, that you know I do. There's always tomorrow and life gives us another chance to do things well but, in case I'm mistaken and today's all that's left, I'd like to tell you how much I love you, that I'll never forget you."
