Ayer, una lagrima se echó a volar
Yesterday, a tear took to the sky
Y en tu barriguita se empezó a pintar
And on your little belly, it began to paint
Un espacio nuevo entre tu piel y el mar
A new space between your skin and the sea
Ayer todo superó la realidad
Yesterday, everything surpassed reality
Nada era mentira todo era verdad
Nothing was a lie, everything was true
Hojas secas te cubrían los pies
Dry leaves covered your feet
Ayer no habían más palabras que decir
Yesterday, there were no more words to say
De tu ombligo yo era un aprendiz
From your navel, I was a learner
De tu cariñito el hombre más feliz
From your little love, the happiest man
Hoy vuelve a crecer el tiempo
Today, time starts to grow again
Hoy regresa nuestra infancia
Today our childhood returns
Hoy esperamos un ángel
Today we await an angel
Con paciencia y esperanza
With patience and hope
Hoy vuelve a crecer el tiempo
Today time starts to grow again
Hoy tus ojos tienen flores
Today your eyes hold flowers
Hoy el sol y la llovizna
Today the sun and the drizzle
No nos ponen condiciones
Place no conditions on us
Ayer, cada día te amo más que ayer
Yesterday, I love you more than yesterday,
Le darás el pecho y un panal de miel
You'll give him your breast and a honeycomb,
Desde tus adentros lo verás nacer
From within you, you'll see him be born
Ayer Dios tomó la vida y nos la dio
Yesterday God took life and gave it back to us
En una península del corazón
In a peninsula of the heart
Una nueva historia nos mandó
He sent us a new story
Ayer a la luna nueva le salió
Yesterday the new moon revealed
Un lunar, un punto de color
A beauty mark, a speck of color
Que hace juego con tu amanecer
That matches your sunrise
