Estas noches a tan largas
para mí, para mí
no solían ser ansi.
Solía que reposaba,
las noches con alegría
y el rato que non dormía
con descanso lo pasaba.
Mas estas que amor me graba
non dormí, non dormí;
non solían ser ansi.
==========================
These nights are so long
for me, for me,
but they used not to be like that.
I used to sleep happily
throughout the night,
and the few moments I was awake
were quite restful.
But ever since love has burdened me,
I can't sleep, I can't sleep;
It used not to be like that.

These spare compositions from Icelandic pianist Gabríel Ólafs are as gentle as snowfall, as soothing as a winter sunset. Bandcamp New & Notable Jul 27, 2020
