En algún lugar del tiempo y del planeta
Somewhere in time and on the planet,
Un milagro se fraguaba para mí
A miracle was brewing just for me.
Cada miembro de tu estirpe
Every member of your lineage
Te fue haciendo la maleta
Was packing your bags for you,
Para ponerte hoy justito junto a mí
To place you right here next to me today.
Cada punto y cruz en tu genealogía
Every dot and cross in your genealogy,
Cada juego del azar y el porvenir
Every game of chance and fate,
Cada ancestro tuyo propagándose en la geografía
Every ancestor of yours spreading across the geography,
Para ponerte hoy justito junto a mí
To place you right here next to me today.
Ya me vi, ya te vi
I already saw myself, I already saw you.
Por los siglos o minutos junto a mí
For the ages or the minutes beside me
Ya me vi, ya te vi
I already saw myself, I already saw you
Por el tiempo que nos dure el porvenir
For as long as the future lasts for us
Ya me vi gastando fechas del futuro junto a ti
I already saw myself spending dates of the future with you
Como otro eslabón del pedigrí
Like another link in the pedigree
(...)
(...)
Ahora soy otro accidente en la cadena
Now I'm just another accident in the chain
Solo otro eslabón del pedigrí
Just another link in the pedigree
Otro actor que se ha colado en tu historia y en tu escena
Another actor who has slipped into your story and your scene
Por la culpa de quererte más que a mí
Because of the guilt of loving you more than myself
Ya me vi, ya te vi
I can see myself, I can see you
Por los siglos o minutos junto a mí
For centuries or minutes by my side
Ya me vi, ya te vi
I can see myself, I can see you
Por el tiempo que nos dure el porvenir
For as long as the future lasts for us
Ya me vi gastando fechas del futuro junto a ti
I can see myself spending future dates with you
Como otro eslabón del pedigrí
Like another link in the pedigree
(...)
(...)
Ya me vi, ya te vi
I can see myself, I can see you
Por el tiempo que nos dure el porvenir
For as long as the future lasts for us
Ya me vi gastando fechas del futuro junto a ti
I can see myself spending future dates with you
Como otro eslabón del pedigrí.
Like another link in the pedigree.
