Oracle Night 1

Había estado mucho tiempo enfermo

I had been sick for a long time
Cuando llego el día de salir del hospital...

When the day came to me to leave the hospital...
Apenas sabía andar (ya)

I barely knew how to walk any more
Casi no podía recordar quién se suponía que era

I barely could remember who I was supposed to be
En tres meses volverá al ritmo de las cosas

In three months you'll be back in the swing of the things
No lo creí, pero seguí su consejo de todas maneras

I didn't believe him, but I followed his advice anyway.
Me habían dado por muerto

They had given me up for dead
Había frustrado sus predicciones y misteriosamente fracasado en morir

I had confounded their predictions and mysteriously failed to die
Qué otra salida tenía sino vivir como si una vida futura me estuviera esperando?

What choice did I have but to live as though a future life were waiting for me?
Empecé con pequeñas salidas

I began with small outings.
A todos los efectos, la enfermedad me había convertido en un anciano

For all intents and purposes the illness had turned me into an old man
Uno de esos viejos paralíticos, que arrastran los pies.

One of those palsied, shuffling geezers.
Incluso al ritmo lento que podía llevar, andar me producía una extraña ligereza en mi cabeza

Even at the slow pace I could managed, walking produced an odd lightness in my head.
