Arrullo que dura la vida
A lullaby that lasts a lifetime
Tu sino me persigna
Your fate marks me
Entre el amor y el dolor,
Between love and pain,
Llego la hora de la despedida
The hour of farewell has come
Arrullo que enjunja con brisa
A lullaby that mingles with the breeze
La música es tu sonrisa
The music is your smile
Mi alimento, tu pecho, tu vida, un instante una luz, la partida
My sustenance, your chest, your life, a moment, a light, the departure
Te veo y espero,
I see you and I wait,
Que cruces sin dolor,
That you cross without pain,
Y en paz nos dejes atrás
And in peace leave us behind
Te quiero y deseo
I love you and desire
Que tu alma vuelva ya
For your soul to return now
A ser una estrella
To be a star again
Ya llegó la nave que te llevará
The ship that will take you has arrived
Cruzaste ya el valle,
You already crossed the valley,
De lágrimas, el mar
Of tears, the sea
¿Cuántas veces tú me cruzaste?
How many times did you pass by me?
Y el sueño me arropó
And the dream wrapped me up
Hoy quiero acompañarte,
Today I want to accompany you,
Hoy te arrullaré yo
Today I will lull you
