Este 28 de agosto se conmemora la vida de un gran santo y doctor de la iglesia Católica, San Agustín de hipona. En esta oportunidad les presento la versión acústica de la canción "Late Have I Loved You" (Tarde te amé) lanzada anteriormente como mi segundo single. Estas palabras pertenecen al libro de "Confesiones" de San Agustín.

Late have I loved you,
Beauty so ancient and so new
Lo, you were within,
but I outside, seeking there for you,
and upon the shapely things you have made
I rushed headlong – I, misshapen.

You were with me, but I was not with you.

Late have I loved you,
Late have I loved you,

You called, shouted,
broke through my deafness;
you flared, blazed,
banished my blindness;

you lavished your fragrance,
I gasped; and now I pant for you;
I tasted you, and now
I hunger and thirst;

you touched me,
and I burned for your peace.

Late have I loved you,
(They held me back far from you)
Late have I loved you,
(those things which would have no being)
Late have I loved you,
(were they not in you)
Late have I loved you,
(were they not in you)

Late have I loved you,
(They held me back far from you)
Late have I loved you,
(those things which would have no being)
Late have I loved you,
(were they not in you)
Late have I loved you,
(They held me back far from you)
(They held me back far from you)
(They held me back...)

Late have I loved you,
Late have I loved you,
Late have I loved you,

(The Confessions Of Saint Augustine)

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

¡Tarde te amé, hermosura tan antigua y tan nueva,
tarde te amé! y tú estabas dentro de mí y yo afuera,
y así por de fuera te buscaba; y, deforme como era,
me lanzaba sobre estas cosas que tú creaste.

Tú estabas conmigo, pero yo no estaba contigo.
Reteníanme lejos de ti aquellas cosas que,
si no estuviesen en ti, no existirían.

Me llamaste y clamaste, y quebraste mi sordera;
brillaste y resplandeciste, y curaste mi ceguera;
exhalaste tu perfume, y lo aspiré, y ahora te anhelo;
gusté de ti, y ahora siento hambre y sed de ti;
me tocaste, y deseo con ansia la paz que procede de ti.

Agustín de Hipona
Las Confesiones
