Mientras siga viendo tu cara en la cara de la fruta
As long as I keep seeing your face in the face of the fruit
Mientras siga comiendo mejor
As long as I keep eating better
De coliflores hasta lechugas
From cauliflowers to lettuces
Mientras elija más frutitas de la estación
As long as I choose more seasonal fruits
