Toma tus cosas y vámonos ya
Take your things and let's go now
Si no corremos, nos van a dejar
If we don't run, they'll leave us behind
Ponte tu casco y tu traje espacial
Put on your helmet and your space suit
La carretera no puede esperar
The road can't wait
¿Dónde vamos?
Where are we going?
Las nubes viajan detrás del cristal
The clouds travel behind the glass
Y las montañas se vienen y van
And the mountains come and go
Yo te regalo esta flor que encontré
I'll give you this flower that I found
En tu cabello, qué bien, mírate
In your hair, how nice, look at you
¿Dónde vamos?
Where are we going?
¿Dónde estamos?
Where are we?
Y nuestra casa se quedó allá atrás
And our home was left behind there
Allá adelante, ¿qué iré a encontrar?
Up ahead, what will I find?
Por mientras, canto
Meanwhile, I sing
Tu, tururú, tururú, turururururú
You, tururú, tururú, turururururú
Tu, tururú, tururú, turururururú
You, tururú, tururú, turururururú
En este camino no hay nadie más
On this path, there's no one else
Tú eres la reina y yo soy el rey
You are the queen and I am the king
En esta arena te hice un collar
On this sand, I made you a necklace
Es de conchitas, todas de carey
It's made of shells, all made of turtle shell
Y nuestra casa se quedó allá atrás (La casa no se ve ya más)
And our home is left behind (The house can no longer be seen)
Allá adelante, ¿qué iré a encontrar? (No sé qué vamos a encontrar)
Up ahead, what will I find? (I don't know what we're going to find)
Y mis amigos que aquí ya no están (Y mis amigos, ¿dónde están?)
And my friends who are no longer here (And my friends, where are they?)
Como las olas que vienen y van (Como las olas)
Like the waves that come and go (Like the waves)
Canto
I sing
Tu, tururú, tururú, turururururú
You, tururú, tururú, turururururú
Tu, tururú, tururú, turururururú
You, tururú, tururú, turururururú
