Nopiltze, hija mia
Nopiltze, my daughter
¿Acaso Dios nunca muere?
Does God ever really die?
A que dios te refieras
Which God do you mean?
Todo de eso depende
All of that depends
Hay dioses que pensaron
There are gods who thought
Que el mundo era infinito
That the world was infinite
Y no hay equilibrio
And there's no balance
Entre los reinos hijo mio
Between the realms, my child

Gira y da vueltas
Spin and turn around
Y rueda girando
And roll spinning
Gira y da vueltas
Spin and turn around
Y rueda, y rueda
And roll, and roll
Quiero hacerla un cuadrado
I want to make it a square
Deformarla en un triangulo
Deform it into a triangle
Pero la vida siempre vuelve
But life always returns
A su forma circular
To its circular shape
(Vuelve a su forma circular)
(Returns to its circular shape)
La unica que puede
The only one that can
Darnos vueltas es Dios
Spinning around is God
Hay tan pocas flores ya
There are so few flowers now
Peces, agua que pense
Fish, water that I thought
Que la vuelta no daría
That the turn wouldn't come
Hoy tu hijo me respira
Today your son breathes me in
Si el equilibrio es Dios
If balance is God
Y el equilibrio murio
And balance has died
¿Que paso con Dios?
What happened to God?
Gira y da vueltas
Twirl and spin
Y rueda girando
And roll while turning
Gira y da vueltas
Spin and turn
Y rueda, y rueda
And roll, and roll
Quiero hacerla un cuadrado (Gira y da vueltas)
I want to make it a square (Spin and turn)
Deformarla en un triangulo (Y rueda girando)
Deform it into a triangle (And roll spinning)
Pero la vida siempre vuelve (Gira y da vueltas)
But life always returns (Spin and turn)
A su forma circular (Y rueda y rueda)
To its circular shape (And roll and roll)
Gira y da vueltas
Spin and turn
Y rueda girando
And roll spinning
Gira y da vueltas
Spin and turn
Y rueda, y rueda
And roll, and roll
