Strumming my pain with his fingers
– Rasgueando mi dolor con sus dedos
Singing my life with his words
– Cantando mi vida con sus palabras
Killing me softly with his song
– Matándome suavemente con su canción
Killing me softly with his song
– Matándome suavemente con su canción
Telling my whole life with his words
– Contando toda mi vida con sus palabras
Killing me softly with his song
– Matándome suavemente con su canción
I heard he sang a good song
– Escuché que cantó una buena canción
I heard he had a style
– Escuché que tenía un estilo
And so I came to see him
– Y entonces vine a verlo
To listen for a while
– Para escuchar por un rato
And there he was this young boy
– Y allí estaba este joven
A stranger to my eyes
– Un extraño para mis ojos
Strumming my pain with his fingers
– Rasgueando mi dolor con sus dedos
Singing my life with his words
– Cantando mi vida con sus palabras
Killing me softly with his song
– Matándome suavemente con su canción
Killing me softly with his song
– Matándome suavemente con su canción
Telling my whole life with his words
– Contando toda mi vida con sus palabras
Killing me softly with his song
– Matándome suavemente con su canción
I felt all flushed with fever
– Me sentí enrojecida por la fiebre.
Embarrassed by the crowd
– Avergonzado por la multitud
I felt he found my letters
– Sentí que encontró mis cartas
And read each one out loud
– Y lee cada una en voz alta
I prayed that he would finish
– Recé para que terminara
But he just kept right on
– Pero él simplemente siguió adelante
Strumming my pain with his fingers
– Rasgueando mi dolor con sus dedos
Singing my life with his words
– Cantando mi vida con sus palabras
Killing me softly with his song
– Matándome suavemente con su canción
Killing me softly with his song
– Matándome suavemente con su canción
Telling my whole life with his words
– Contando toda mi vida con sus palabras
Killing me softly with his song
– Matándome suavemente con su canción
He sang as if he knew me
– Cantó como si me conociera
In all my dark despair
– En toda mi oscura desesperación
And then he looked right through me
– Y luego miró a través de mí
As if I wasn’t there
– Como si yo no estuviera allí
And he just kept on singing
– Y él siguió cantando
Singing clear and strong
– Cantando claro y fuerte
Strumming my pain with his fingers
– Rasgueando mi dolor con sus dedos
Singing my life with his words
– Cantando mi vida con sus palabras
Killing me softly with his song
– Matándome suavemente con su canción
Killing me softly with his song
– Matándome suavemente con su canción
Telling my whole life with his words
– Contando toda mi vida con sus palabras
Killing me softly with his song
– Matándome suavemente con su canción
Oh, oh-oh
– Oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
– Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
La-la-la, la-la
– La-la-la, la-la
Oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh
– Oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh
La, ah-ah, ah
– La, ah-ah, ah
La, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah
– La, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah
Strumming my pain with his fingers
– Rasgueando mi dolor con sus dedos

Telling my whole life with his words
– Contando toda mi vida con sus palabras
Killing me (Softly)
– Matándome (suavemente)
He was strumming my pain
– Él estaba rasgando mi dolor
Yeah, he was singing my life
– Sí, él estaba cantando mi vida
Killing me softly with his song
– Matándome suavemente con su canción
Killing me softly with his song
– Matándome suavemente con su canción
Telling my whole life with his words
– Contando toda mi vida con sus palabras
Killing me softly
– Matándome suavemente
With his song
